Bay View Market Day 2024

The day began with a light drizzle, but setup went smoothly, and the weather soon cleared.

It was awesome to see so many people making a day of it, creating a fantastic atmosphere among customers and stallholders alike.

We loved meeting creative stallholders from near and far, showcasing such a variety of unique products.

We’re still finding our groove with markets, but each one sparks new ideas for us to grow and improve—exciting things are on the horizon, so stay tuned!

And just like that, Hakihea (December) has arrived. 🌿✨

Looking back on last year’s wet and chilly Taikura Fete of 2023!

Despite the weather, we had an amazing time at our first-ever market, meeting fellow stallholders and getting a taste of market life.

This year, we’re off adventuring with the whānau—wishing everyone sunnier skies and a fantastic day ahead 🙌🏼

We kicked off our summer market season with the Te Awanga Market this past Sunday. After 1 market last year that was very rainy, we were excited to give markets another go with new products, sign and gazebo.

On Sunday the clouds did play ball and we had a dry day but the wind did not. With a chilly southerly making fingers numb, our gazebo decide it wanted to try be a parachute and scaring customers away. Not quite the day we had hoped for, and we didn’t want to sugar coat it! Fingers crossed we get a sorching summer and all future markets are sunny and packed with customers.

Special shout out to the whanau members who helped man the fort with me (Ana). The Te Awanga Market is happening twice in December 1st and 15th, don’t forget to check it out for all your Christmas shopping needs. You might see us there!
