About Farmers Markets in Northland

Farmers markets have been a cornerstone of New Zealand communities for generations, serving as vital connections between local producers and consumers. These markets play a crucial role in supporting local agriculture and providing fresh, seasonal produce to the community.

The Whangārei Growers Market is one of Northland's longest-running and most popular farmers markets, exemplifying the farm-to-table movement. Regular market-goers benefit from:

  • Access to the freshest seasonal produce
  • Direct interaction with local growers
  • Supporting the local economy
  • Reduced food miles and environmental impact
  • Building community connections

Shopping at farmers markets helps maintain traditional growing practices and supports small-scale farming in Northland. It's also an excellent way to learn about seasonal produce and discover new varieties of fruits and vegetables that aren't typically found in supermarkets.
