WHAT IS A FARMERS MARKET?

A farmers market is a food market where local growers, farmers and artisan food produces sell their wares directly to the consumers. Vendors may only sell what they grow, farm, pickle, preserve, bake, smoke or catch themselves from within a defined local area. 

 

This is where we are located:

 

About us:

The Tauranga Farmers Market is an Incorporated Society.  It's purpose is to enable food growers and producers to sell directly to the customer.  This also gives the customer the opportunity to meet and question the grower or producer about their product.  In the last few years, there has been a growing awareness of where our food comes from, and how far it has travelled(food miles) and what chemicals and methods have been used in growing that food.    The popularity of Farmers Markets is a worldwide phenomenon and a fantastic asset to Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty.  The Tauranga Farmers Market is affiliated to the New Zealand Farmers Market Association.
