The market is renowned for its friendly and relaxed atmosphere, and offering a diverse range of fresh produce and genuine artisanal goods.

Every Sunday from 8.30 am to 12.30 pm, the market offers patrons a complete shopping experience at the grounds of the Waikoko Gardens at the Tōmoana Showgrounds.

The recognition holds special significance for the market as it navigated through a challenging year, in the aftermath of a cyclone that affected stallholders and the community.

Market chairman Mark Verry said they were thrilled to receive the title.

“This award serves as a testament to the resilience and dedication of our stallholders and the unwavering support of our community.

“Despite the challenges we faced, we remained steadfast in our commitment to providing a vibrant marketplace where growers and artisans showcase their finest produce and products.”
