Super street food at Alberton Market Day!

Rendell McIntosh from Alberton

Come along hungry to Alberton Market Day on Sunday! You'll want to try a little bit of everything from these great food vendors. As well as sweet & savoury crepes from Crepes Creations, there will be the incredible Filipino fusion burgers of Manila Eats, the epic chargrilled pork belly Sandwiches of The Hungry Swine, Italian specialties from Salato, sweet treats from Grownup Donuts and Mister Gelato and an offering from Cazador ('sloppy Josés') who will be popping up a deli! Alberton's quaint tearoom will be open, serving tea & scones from the vintage china.

So much deliciousness! Definitely worth an outing for brunch, lunch or a snack and the trouble to find a parking spot.

Shop local for unique specialty produce and handmade items, enjoy sounds by The Burtones and Levi, learn all about seed saving and growing from seed in a free talk with Blue Borage at 12:30. Always lots on offer! Don't miss the 2nd to last market of the summer.

Alberton Market Day, THIS SUNDAY 8 March, 10am-2pm, FREE ENTRY

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
