Heirloom Tomatoes, Zucchini and Cucumber Plants at Waikanae and Otaki Markets

Val from Otaki District

Finally a fine weekend just in time for spring planting!!!
Visit us at the Waikanae Community Market on this Saturday. Look for our stall half-way down Park Avenue (see photo) from 8.00 am to midday.
Over sixty varieties of heirloom tomatoes, from the tiny to the enormous. Strong healthy plants, grown locally and ready to go in the ground now. (Two excellent articles on growing tomatoes on Stuff today!)
Also a range of different Zucchini and the first cucumbers for those with green houses or a sunny sheltered spot.
At Otaki, you will find us in the carpark opposite New World from 10.00 - 2.00 on Sunday.
