Their Royal Highnesses will walk through the Market Square where they will meet market stall holders and shop owners.  The market stalls will be made up of local business including:

Northfield Farm, Northfield Farm straddles the Rutland/Leicestershire border midway between Oakham and Melton Mowbray. 

Barnsdale Gardens For families or gardeners, Barnsdale is an inspiring place to visit at any time of the year. With Britain's largest collection of individually designed gardens, it's teeming with great ideas.

Rutland Biodynamics. Rutland Biodynamics Ltd was the first and is still possibly the only on-farm British or European licensed cGMP producer and manufacturer of bulk botanical extracts from home grown certified  biodynamic organic herbs.

They will also meet Morris dancers and people associated with Oakham in Bloom.

Jayne Woodcock, Mayor of Oakham: “I am delighted that The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall have chosen to visit Oakham and for The Duchess of Cornwall to honour the town by presenting a horseshoe for display in Oakham Castle. I am sure the royal visitors will enjoy seeing the unique features of Oakham and meeting some of the residents of the town and surrounding county.”
