Deptford Flower Market officially launched by Elvis Lesley
A new creative, foodie and flower market in Deptford gets it’s grand opening with Elvis Lesley cutting the ribbon at Deptford Market Yard right next to Deptford rail station.
What: Saturdays from 1 February-End July 2025 | When: 9am-4pm | Where: Carriage Way, Deptford Market Yard, SE8 | Free entry – all welcome
Info: https://wherehavealltheflowersgone.co.uk/market/ / Eventbrite listing
The market is an inclusive celebration of everyday joy, colour and flowers. The Saturday market will be a friendly community and platform for creative makers and responsible buyers based off London’s best high street Deptford.
Every Saturday from 9am-4pm, a diverse and ever-changing range of stalls will be selling everything from flowers to LGBTQIA+ books. Stalls announced so far include radical queer bookshop The Common Press, tea maverick A Little Tea, irresistible blondies and brownies from Slate n Crumb and fun beary vintage from Bear107.
The market is run by 14 year life partners, London writers (todolist.london), and florists Ru & Stu with their sustainable flower works being showcased on an original 1960s milk float. They hope to provide a space for queer, local and underrepresented people to sell their wares in a safe space.
Inspired by nature, making things and celebrating our unique community, the market hopes to bring a slice of Columbia Road, Brick Lane and Chiswick Flower Market to Deptford’s already bustling Saturday markets.
If you’re after a bargain, Sundays will also be a boot sale, where anyone in the community can hawk their wares with Becca for just £10/space.

A House Like This: Essential oils and sprays, candles, wax melts, skincare and insect repellent
A Little Cup: Unique tea blends and tea-based gifts
Bear 107: Clothes and accessories with a queer twist
The Common Press: Intersectional LGBTQIA+ Books
