The weather lately is starting to slowly improve so shopping at Tawa Lions Saturday Market is very pleasant in the sunshine and a great place to spend half an hour stocking up your fresh veges, eggs, honey and various produce and products from local community stalls on the day.

This week our Honey Stall will have Liquid and Creamed Meadow, plus the popular Bush varieties. We are also continuing free taste-testing with Waireka Rewarewa honey. We also have our usual range of eggs, along with some supplies of jam from Suzette at Idle Kitchen, all while stocks last so come early to avoid disappointment.

Our main supplier - Helens Honey - is consolidating production to Bush only. We will continue to regularly stock creamed Bush, with all other flavours available if and when we are supplied by Helen.

We are continuing to search for replacement products - as per the Waireka product currently available - but Helen provides an unbeatable deal on quantity and quality."
