Community spirit
I love seeing the flyers for my market up around the district. Sadly, we have lost a few stallholders to injury and illness. And the lowering numbers is making other stallholders nervous, and reconsider coming.
I know there are a lot of events on over the weekend, including the Home & Garden Show, but I know, with your support, and clever skills, we can do this.
All you wonderful, clever and creative businesses and people out there, I would really love to have you show and sell your treasures at the market. Bookings are open till midday Friday, for Saturdays market. Shared large stalls are available.
Check out re-new.nz/sustainable-market for details and bookings.
