🌧️ Don't let the rain stop your Saturday adventure! 🌧️

NerdyTortoises is at Bidford Village Market today from 9am–1pm, ready for all your plushie needs! 🐢💚

Our cuddly friends might not be waterproof, but they are machine washable at 30°C, so a little British weather is no match for these adventure-proof companions! 🥰

Come and meet our collection, including:
🐰 Bunnies
🦖 Dinosaurs
🦎 Axolotls
🐔 Chickens
🐢 Turtles
🦄 Unicorns
🐉 Dragons
…and so much more!

There's plenty to explore around the market too. Grab a freshly baked loaf of bread 🍞, some delicious cheese 🧀, artisan pottery, unique jewellery 💍, a fabulous feathered hat 🎩 and lots of other wonderful local goodies.

Wrap up, grab an umbrella and come and say hello—we'd love to see you! ❤️

🐢✨ DON’T FORGET — IT’S DAY TWO! ✨🧶

The Bidford Arts & Crafts Festival continues tomorrow! 🎉💛

📍 St Laurence’s Church, village centre ⛪
📅 10am – 5pm

We think we’ve managed to wrangle all of our crochet creatures back onto the stall… but honestly, at this point it’s anyone’s guess where they’ll be by morning 👀🧸

The turtles have been suspiciously quiet 🐢🤫
The dragons are pretending they’ve been “helpfully supervising” 🐉🔥
And the unicorns… well… there’s definitely been glitter in places glitter should not be 🦄✨

If they’ve stayed put, they’ll be ready for another day of meeting their future adventuring buddies 💕🧶

Come say hello, have a browse, and see which magical mischief-makers are waiting for you 🐘🦖🐑🦄

We’d love to see you there! 💛✨

🐢✨ NerdyTortoises has officially taken over St Laurence’s Church for the Bidford Art & Craft Festival! ✨🐉

We’re here TODAY from 12–6pm on this fantastically hot Sunday 🌞🔥

If you’re melting in the sunshine, come cool off inside the lovely church while browsing loads of amazing local craft stalls 🧶🎨🕯️

As for us… we are currently attempting to keep the plushie population under control 👀
There are dragons causing mischief 🐉, penguins waddling about 🐧, elephants being suspiciously adorable 🐘, ducks causing chaos 🦆 and MANY more magical companions waiting for new homes ✨

And remember… cute has NO age limit 💖
Everyone deserves their own emotional support goblin/dragon/penguin/plushie 😌

Come say hello, escape the heat for a bit, and maybe adopt a tiny friend 🥰

🐢✨ IT’S ALMOST TIME! ✨🧶

Tomorrow is the first day of the Bidford Arts & Crafts Festival 🎉💛

We’ll be setting up at St Laurence’s Church, right in the village centre ⛪✨ and honestly… we can hardly wait!

Right now, we’re just hoping our little crochet menagerie behaves itself overnight 👀🧸
We’ve got fingers firmly crossed that the turtles don’t start a slow-motion conga line 🐢💃, the dragons don’t practice their “tiny but mighty” fire poses 🐉🔥, and the unicorns don’t get too sparkly for their own good 🦄✨

If they stay in line (big if…), they’ll be ready to meet you all tomorrow! 🧶💕

📅 Sunday: 12–6pm
📅 Bank Holiday Monday: 10–5pm

We’ve got so many magical handmade creatures waiting for their adventuring buddies — and we can’t wait for you to meet them 💫

Hope to see you there! 🐢🧡

Wait… how has it been TWO YEARS already?! 😱🎉

We attended our very first Bidford Market back in April 2024 and honestly… where did that time go?!

It’s always so much fun (and slightly emotional 😅) looking back at old photos and seeing how our stock — and our table layout! — has levelled up over the years. From our early little line-ups to tables absolutely bursting with colourful creatures ready for adoption 🐢🐉🐙… what a glow-up!

We couldn’t have done any of this without YOU 💚 Every adoption, every kind word, every little chat at the stall means more than you know. Watching familiar faces come back market after market is the best feeling ever 🥰

We are SO excited to see you all again in March to kick off another season at Bidford! More plushies, more chaos, more nerdy goodness… 2026, let’s do this! 🚀✨
