Have you ever wondered where the broccoli you were eating was grown, or who caught that fish you’re preparing? Or have you simply thought it would be great to support local producers? Well, the Hill Street Farmers’ Market is giving Wellingtonians a chance to buy local.

The market is held every Saturday morning, rain or shine, and helps connect locals to passionate regional food producers and exquisite fresh local food.

The Hill Street Farmers’ Market is about celebrating the best of our region and allowing producers an opportunity to present their products directly to consumers. It also provides a forum for educating the community about supporting and enjoying locally grown and produced food, including organic and spray free produce. The market includes in-season fruit and vegetable growers and producers from Wellington, the Kapiti Coast, Horowhenua, Hawkes Bay and the Wairarapa, fresh fish, boutique meat producers selling free range produce and an array of other treats and necessities.

After shopping enjoy a fair trade coffee under the pohutakawa tree while you read the paper or chat to friends.
