A truly friendly community country market where people gather to chat, browse, score a bargain, taste some goodies and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee with friends along with some yummy treats in our popup café.
There’s an impressive range of arts and crafts, natural skincare, produce, Junk For Joy - upcycled and repurposed furniture and homewares, Bernie's Barrows, Natural Health Supplements, Bric-a-Brac, books, plants, Olive Oil, Honey and lots lots more including Honey, Bird Feeders, Pottery, Knits, Preserves etc. etc.
And of course there is our Seasonal Surplus stall where you can drop off surplus fruit and veges from your garden for sale - we sell it on your behalf and donate our percentage to local causes. Everyone wins and nothing gets wasted!
A great country market where you will find cheerful smiles and a lovely bunch of really friendly and hugely talented stallholders.
All are very very welcome - just don’t forget your masks (unless exempt).

Bakhtawar Sattha is the proud owner of Persia.
"This is six year old Persia, lives in Miramar. I got her from Cats Protection Wellington in February 2022. She likes to be patted and eagerly waits for me to return home from work. She is still timid and hides when my friends visit."

"The clouds have hung so low and angry, that it has looked like grubby twilight all day. Still, everyone just goes about their business despite the shortness of the day and the bleak lighting. The weather didn't phase the fantail/pīwakawaka (Rhipidura fuliginosa), plenty of moths, midges, and spiders still to grab and other beings to investigate."
Come along and support our local car booters or book yourself a spot. Car park spots are $10 each. Please email or phone/text Jackie: 027 240 2353 or ajdoherty@xtra.co.nz to book a spot. Sausage sizzle plus hot and cold refreshments available :)
