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.

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