Father’s Day is just around the corner! 💓 So why not spend Saturday exploring the Toko Market and Boot Sale in Milton. With 30 fantastic stalls featuring amazing local vendors, it’s the perfect spot to pick up a last-minute gift for Dad while supporting a wonderful local initiative.

Looking for something to do today in this horrendous weather? Make sure you pop down the Cross Recreation Centre and check out the huge range of stalls and maybe grab your Dad a prezzy for Fathers day. A good way to spend a windy/rainy day and you might even get some of your Xmas shopping done too 😁

Make sure you say hi to some of our amazing Clutha Community Market stall holders that will be there 👌

We are sorry 😢

After a lot of thought, our team of organisers — Kara, Andrea, and myself (Brodie) — have made the difficult decision not to go ahead with the Father's Day Market in September. Due to significant health issues affecting us, we need to focus on our recovery, which means reducing both our physical and mental stress.

When we're able to return will depend on how each of our recoveries progresses. We are truly sorry for any inconvenience or disappointment this may cause, but we need to put our health first.

We'd also like to keep the details of our health issues private, and we appreciate your understanding and respect. Please know that we are okay, and with time, we will back better than ever ❤️

Thank you all for your support and understanding.

📚❤️ Calling all book lovers and romance readers!

We're excited to welcome local author Megan Duff (M J Duff) to the Food Bank Booksale and Clutha Community Market.

A self-published independent author who has recently relocated to Balclutha from the Far North, Megan writes heartwarming romance stories filled with love, friendship, and happily-ever-afters.

Be sure to check out her Emerald Isle Trilogy, a charming three-book small-town romance series set in the picturesque village of Doolin, Ireland. If you enjoy stories about found family, community, and romance, these books could be your next favourite read.

Megan will be joining us in the auditorium alongside the Food Bank Booksale, where you'll be able to meet the author, learn more about her books, and pick up a signed copy.

📍 Te Pou o Mata-Au - Clutha District War Memorial and Community Centre
📅 Saturday 13th June
🛍️ Clutha Community Market: 10am–2pm
📚 Food Bank Booksale & selected stalls: 10am–5pm

With over 30 market stalls, delicious food, artisan baking, handmade crafts, fresh produce, gifts, and thousands of books available, there's something for everyone. Best of all, proceeds from the Booksale help support our local Food Bank.
