Eat Drink and Be crafty
This popular annual event is being held again on Saturday 29 January 2022, from 10am to 4pm and run by The Lions Club of Mana.
Enjoy the very best of locally-made crafts, artisan food, and refreshments in a lovely rural setting at the Eat Drink and Be Crafty Fair. There will also be a live band and plenty of entertainment for all ages – it’s sure to be a great family day out everyone.
Cell phone coverage in the area of Battle Hill is patchy which in turn means coverage for Eftpos machines can be a problem. In the past, cash has proved to be the most reliable means for transactions. There will be a limited Eftpos facility on the day supplying cash.
The proceeds from the day will support Wellington Free Ambulance and local Porirua Community Charities.
Where: Greater Wellington’s Battle Hill Farm Forest Park, 608 Paekakariki Hill Road, Porirua, Wellington
NOTE: Covid vaccination passes will be verified upon entry from the carpark.
“No pass no entry”
Admission: Gold coin donation
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
