EAT SHORT THIS WINTER SOLSTICE ❄️🍽️

Join us with Eat New Zealand this Sunday in savouring a meal that is as local as can be!

Head to your local Farmers Market to meet your growers, farmers and producers and make your favourite meal with as many local ingredients as possible.

Take it to the next level by making your meal COMPLETELY LOCAL! Only using ingredients from your region or NZ wide 🙌

You can keep it simple too, with something from your garden, neighbours chickens, a vegetable stand or head out this weekend to your local farmers markets for an abundance at your fingertips.

We look forward to seeing all the beautiful meals that come out of this amazing celebration of local kai in Aotearoa.

CHEERS TO LOCAL! Thank you Eat New Zealand 🧡

This report is highly concerning regarding the level of food poverty in a country that produces and exports so much. We have forgotten how to feed ourselves. All our markets could be promoting their value for those on struggling incomes.

The Hunger Monitor is the country's first comprehensive tally of food insecurity and will serve as a benchmark for annual updates.

This week we celebrate National Farmers' Markets Week, proudly showcasing 30 growers and artisan producers.

This year we're celebrating with the theme 'Feeding the Community'. There has never been a better time to come along, talk to the people behind the food and support local and in season produce.

This week we launch an information stall where you can come along and chat to the Feilding & District Promotion team about our Market and the roles we have here in New Zealand's most beautiful town and rural Manawatu. Available to purchase will be Feilding Farmers Market branded shopping bags and Feilding postcards. We hope to meet many of you in the upcoming weeks.

Ruapehu Lowline Angus are bringing another new product - Herb & Garlic Sausage Rolls, and misskoreakimchiandmore will be leaving the market soon for a winter break - so stock up on delicious Kimchi over the next 3 weeks!
