Farm Fresh Fruit & Vegie Store is a market at 13 Main Rd in Te Kauwhata, in the Waikato. It has a 5.0 rating on Google.
A good fruit and vegetable store sells produce that is fresh, well displayed and fairly priced, with staff who can tell you what is in season and how to keep it at its best. The Waikato is a rich farming and growing region, so seasonal local produce is often the best buy, and asking what has just come in is the quickest route to good value. Regulars know that arriving earlier in the day gives the best choice, that buying by the bag or box can cut the price, that ripe fruit should be eaten first and that tomatoes, bananas and stone fruit are best kept out of the fridge. Bring your own bags and some cash, although cards are often accepted, and check opening days before you go, as small stores may close on some days. Te Kauwhata is also known for its vineyards, which pair well with a visit.
For anyone in Te Kauwhata and the north Waikato, Farm Fresh on Main Road is a local place to buy fruit and vegetables.
