NEW in the Neighbourhood - Fresh Produce Market
Saturdays 8.30am – 12.30pm Freyberg Place
2020 - to 19 December. Back from 9 Jan 2021
Weekly on Saturday mornings from 8.30am on Freyberg Place on High St there will be a fresh produce market – veges, fruit, bread, baking, cheese and more…
It’s not just about great food but the potential to enhance the community centre on Saturdays, bringing to life the notion of the village well. With the downstairs room of the centre, the Helen Clark Room/”urban lounge” open, there is time and space to stop, have a coffee and engage as a neighbourhood.
Run by a couple of local residents with the support of the Ellen Melville Centre, there has been much beavering away to make the oft’ spoken of desire of a market for apartment dwellers at the community centre, a reality – our market – a market for us.
If good fresh food (you won’t find a food truck here) and the village well, sound like something you want to support, put the weekly market shop on your radar, come on down and bring a friend. Markets only grow bigger as they receive more support and the stallholder community starts talking about it. To that end if you can carry a poster in your building to help advertise the market here are two posters:
