A Sunday farmers' market at 1 Papakura-Clevedon Road in Clevedon, south of Auckland. It was founded in 2005 to let local growers and producers sell directly to the public, and the website says it now has more than 60 permanent and seasonal stalls.
The market runs every Sunday morning except Christmas, Easter Sunday and the Clevedon A&P Show day. The stalls sell seasonal fruit and vegetables, some picked the night before, along with fresh baking, pastries and espresso. Stallholders share cooking tips and recipes, and visitors can sample produce and meet the growers. The website says some popular produce lines sell out by mid-morning, so early arrival gives the widest choice.
Visitors describe the market as a relaxed, friendly place in a rural setting, and families are welcome. While the adults shop, children can play on the grass and wander the stalls.
