Wellington Botanic Garden Makers Market & Creepy Cute Market - Saturday, 2 March 2024

Sharon from Karori

Foxtail Events are bringing Wellington not one, but two fabulous markets this weekend!

For all the cute creeps out there, head along to Thistle Hall Community Venue from 9.30am - 2.30pm and check out the Creepy Cute Market!

And, for those that wish to stroll among the roses and enjoy the sunshine, then pop on over to the Wellington Botanic Garden Makers Market at the Lady Norwood Rose Garden from 9am - 2pm.

Both these markets will have a great selection of stunning products created and designed by our very own local artists and crafters of Wellington!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
