Kirby Lane is a fresh food market at 105 Bridge St, Collingwood, in the Tasman district, with a Google rating of 4.7.
A good fresh food market sells produce that is fresh, local and honestly labelled, so you can see what is in season and where it came from. Ask staff what is at its best, what keeps well and how to store it, and taste where you can. The Tasman and Golden Bay region grows plenty of fruit, vegetables and other produce, so seasonal food is often at its freshest close to where it is grown. Small shops in Collingwood serve both locals and travellers heading to Golden Bay, so check opening days before a special trip, and bring your own bags and some cash or a card. Regulars arrive early for the best choice, buy seasonal produce in bulk for preserving and ask about local specialties.
For locals and for visitors on the road to Golden Bay, Kirby Lane in Collingwood is a place to pick up fresh food.
