The weekly or monthly market day brings together fruit and vegetable farmers, freshly caught fish, producers of speciality food products, herbal body care products, and craftspeople to show off their work as well as clothing new and used and bric-a-brac.
Markets are colourful places that reflect the multi culture of the people living in this area. Hustling and buzzing in many tongues and specialities of different nations melt together.
West Auckland has a variety of farmer markets year round.
