Wairarapa Farmer's Market - a great outing for a winter morning

Wairarapa Farmer’s Market is a gem in the winter with fresh greens and vegetables from Little Farms and Gladstone Gardens. Make it your Saturday regular – and top tip this week is wear your gumboots (like lots of the region the showgrounds are wet underfoot right now!) and park by the main entrance in Judds Road and take the short walk from there.
Grab a coffee, enjoy the live music each week and browse the stalls under cover below the grand stand. Such a wide selection of local products: honey, jam, cheese, apples, crafts, pottery and more.
Wairarapa Farmer’s Market - take your kids these school holidays and make it a regular family outing. Solway Showgrounds, Masterton Whakaoriori - 9am -1pm every Saturday.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
