We're indoors this week
As the weather is going to be wet and blustery this weekend, we've managed to find an indoor location to keep out the elements. This Sunday we will be operating from the old RD1 building at 112 High St South.
REMEMBER YOUR MASK. Head on down for your veges and produce from:

Honey may be purchased in 500g or 900g pots, for $10 or $15, or larger 2.5 and 5kg containers by arrangement. We offer an Eco-Friendly container filling service, where you provide the container and we fill it with your choice of honey, (available by arrangement, not on site at the Market).

A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!
If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.2% ... It is complicated
