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).

"I used to avoid posting photos where I had accidentally captured a nictitating membrane - I thought they looked like weird sausage-skin sideways eyelids. Then I read that they are amazing built-in bird goggles, so the bird can blink and still see, or even shutter their eyes in extreme conditions to protect their eyes while flying or diving. Apparently we used to have them too - the pink blob in the inner corner of our eyes is a vestigial membrane. I suppose we evolved out of needing them - still they might have been handy the other day when I was trying to take photos on the beach during a gale. Pūkeko/purple swamphen (Porphyrio melanotus) at Waimanu Lagoon."
