THIS SUNDAY at Alberton Market Day!
Get your avocados fresh from the growers - Kamai Ranges Orchard, Katikati ($5 bags and avos both ready to eat and to ripen), the first season's strawbs, blueberries and delicious Campari tomatoes from Sweet Red Strawberries, Helensville, as well as produce grown by Mt Albert locals at Sanctuary Community Organic Garden!
If you want them at the market please come by to grab a few avos and a punnet of strawbs! It applies to all the stalls but particularly the produce ones - if they dont have a good day we cant get them back! Lots of work for these growers to get their produce to market and there is waste and loss if it doesn't sell. Please come by to support 'em if you want them!
Exciting new specialty produce vendors this month include Savour (dairy-free nut cheese) and Milk 2.0 - Plant based milks. Lots of your favourite regulars like Cazador Delicatessen, Salash Delicatessen, Zino's Preserves, Delboys, Lulu's Tonics, Our Harvest Preserves, Foundry Chocolate, Grandma Jenkins Fruit Cakes (Christmas cakes!), Queen of Tarts (Christmas tarts!) Grownup Donuts and Otti & Olli return with their delicious artisanal goodies! Grab some gorgeous groceries and treats you wont find in the supermarket.
Alberton Market Day! Sunday 8 November. 10am-2pm. FREE ENTRY.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
