Market this Saturday
Sunny weather (we've been rather lucky in that department over the last couple of months!) and a fantastic range of stalls again - what's more to wish for on a Saturday morning in Thames? And with Christmas around the corner it's the perfect occasion for getting some beautiful gifts - sewing, knitting, T-shirts, jewellery etc. etc. Other highlights of the market are organic produce at Pakaraka Permaculture's stall, Ohaene Organics with freshly lifted Campina potatoes, Stratos Olive Oil, Kate and Kurt with strawberries and other berries. 700 Block, Pollen Street, Thames 8am to 12pm.
