Over the coming days we'll be reporting on all the events that have been going on today - one of the busiest Saturdays for some time in the town centre.
North Lincolnshire Council presented its farmers' market awards to the top stallholders who sell their wares at this monthly event which always attracts hundreds of visitors to the Market Place.
There was an exhibition of artwork in the Angel Courtyard, while in the Angel Suite several events were taking place at the same time. In conjunction with a well-attended coffee morning for the Town Mayor's Appeal Fund was the presentation of awards for the best-kept gardens and allotments competition, run by Brigg Town Council, which manages the plots on Redcome Lane/Atherton Way and Grammar School Road.
Meanwhile, members of the public were welcome to visit a stand launching the Brigg Community-Led Plan. Members of the committee concerned were there to explain what it's all about and to canvas people's views on what they see as the good and bad things about our town.
Andrew Percy MP was also there, holding a surgery for residents who wished to raise matters of concern with him. He was kept so busy that Brigg Blog didn't manage to get a word in - edgeways or otherwise!
We've got photos and reports coming up of today's farmers' market and awards - for which the master (mistress?) of ceremonies was North Lincolnshire Council's Christine Edwards.
We also have pix of the best-kept garden awards and have made arrangements with Town Clerk Jeanette Woollard to get a selection of images taken during the judging process, which we'll be posting on Brigg Blog (as we've done in previous years). Finally, there will be pictures of the Community-Led Plan's official launch.
Oh, and we also managed to get one of the young people who are today undertaking a street collection in aid of that worthwhile cause, Lincolnshire LIVES.
