Alberton Market Day this Sunday!
This Sunday! Shop local for all your Christmas gifts and stock the pantry for summer at Alberton Market Day.
As well as stalls of fruit & veg fresh from the orchards (cherries, strawberries, tomatoes, avocado) specialty produce (honey, olive oil, chocolate, preserves, deli, meats, baked goods) and handmade items (candles, homewears, toys, woodcrafts and more) there will be vintage gems curated by Fossick & Furnish and special guest Lynda Hallinan.
Boutique plant nursery Puriri Lane will be back and Jasper Hawkins will be providing the soundtrack for the day! Join us at 11:30 for a free talk on uses and properties of herbs (culinary, cleaning, for health, healing, stress, sleep, beauty) with garden writer and editor Jane Wrigglesworth of Sweet Living Magazine.
With food vendors serving an array of tempting options for brunch and lunch and Alberton's quaint tea room open for business, with tea & scones served from the vintage china - meet a friend and stay a while to enjoy the ambiance in the garden and historic house. As always there will be children's activities, a face-painter, spot-prizes and a HUGE hamper of goodies to win! Make any purchase for an entry form.
It going to be a cracker! Don't miss the final market of the year, you'll have to wait untill mid-February for the next one.
Alberton Market Day, Sunday 13 December, 10am-2pm. Free entry.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
