It will be conducted at the Pomonal Hall, from 10am through un til 2pm.
It's a great way to spend what will be a crisp day, a relaxed visit to a beautiful place with warm, friendly country folk and many interesting things to see and to buy.
Much of what is at the market is locally grown or created locally.
As winter's nearly here and its already chilly, the big open fire will be going in the hall.
Sadly, there won't be the usual fundraising sausage sizzle this month, but patrons won't go hungry as will be hot soup, sausage rolls and sandwiches for lunch, with tables around the fire.
Morning and afternoon tea will also be available
There'll be some hardy folk set up outside the hall with their colourful, interesting stalls, as well as the Hall also being crammed with stalls.
Stalls include a huge number of pre-loved books, CDs and tapes, antique china and glass which will interest serious collectors, intriguing Manchester items for craftspeople, handmade natural soaps, many locally grown plants and shrubs.
