A truly friendly community country market where people gather to chat, browse, score a bargain, taste some goodies and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee along with some yummy treats in our popup café with friends.
There’s an impressive range of arts and crafts, natural skincare, produce, upcycled and repurposed furniture and homewares, Bernie's Barrows, Natural Health Supplements, Bric-a-Brac, books, plants, Olive Oil, Honey and lots lots more.
And of course there is our Seasonal Surplus stall where you can drop off surplus fruit and veges from your garden for sale - we sell it on your behalf and donate our percentage to local causes. Everyone wins and nothing gets wasted!
A great country market where you will find cheerful smiles and a lovely bunch of really friendly and hugely talented stallholders.
All are very very welcome - just don’t forget your masks (unless exempt).

I am a Registered Comprehensive Nurse with Mental Health qualifications and have worked in a DHB community hospital based setting for many years. I also have medical and surgical rehabilitation experience.
My approach to care embraces a true person centred approach, made possible by my being able to offer 1:1 care, tailor made for your loved one's needs. As little care by the clock as is possible. Care is structured according to your loved one's presentation as being the sum of :
P+B+H+NI+SP
P = Personality
B = Biography
H = Physical Health
NI = Social & Physical world around them.

I am not sure where Chilli is from but her owner Joy is very proud of her.
"This is my 25year old Chinchilla called Chilli. She is a Standard grey colour, and she is the sweetest wee girl, who loves her cuddles and snuggles with Mum, and loves pats and tickles from all of our family. Its very very rare to have a Chinchilla who loves to be touched as much as she does. She is a rescue who came from people who didn't know how to properly care for her. Her favorite treats are dried Red rose petals, dried rose buds and most of all, her Apple sticks. I love her so much."
Remember if you want your pet featured on Neighbourly, email us on yourpet@dompost.co.nz with a recent photo. Please remember to say which suburb you live in.

"I was going to leave the tūī for my checklist until the kowhai or flax were flowering later in the year - you know, for the poses, but this guy just about landed on my lap in the Herb Garden at the Wellington Bot Gardens - he's on a stake by the curry plant, which funnily enough, really smells like curry. He was singing up a storm in the pine trees before swooping down for a quick sniff. Bird #83 in 2022."
