Gordonton Country Market is the epitome of country living and the yummy local produce associated with living life in the country. it’s a sweet place to snag a weeks worth of delicious fresh fruit and veggies (especially blurberries and apricots) for the week’s groceries. The prices are, as always, amazing.
What a great market! Set in park-like grounds with shade from huge established trees, you just wander the lawn from stall to stall with a great range of locally produced quality artisan products. My score of the day was a Whisky Orange Marmalade - amazing! Wife's was a raspberry vinaigrette .. and the kids got a new doll's dress each. But the range of crafts on sale was diverse, and the stall-holders were really friendly. We went down from Auckland, for something different to do and to get out of the city... and have to say I loved it. Well done Gordonton Country Market.
