HAPPY NEW YEAR

Info Stall

 We have the ATM operating for anyone wanting cash. We also have many products for sale, all produced in Marlborough with local ingredients. These products have very little travel hours, and showcase the amazing produce that Marlborough can offer




Drop the Beet

Drop the BEET will be at the market this Sunday with 500ml bottles and 360ml eco cups of cold-pressed juice. Remember to bring your clean empty bottles for your bottle deposit refund or discount ! 

Flaxbourne Olive Oil

We are a Single Estate olive oil producer. This simply means that we only use olives that we

have grown ourselves here on our estate in Ward. We know exactly what has happened during the production of the oil, from spraying the trees, harvesting the olives, pressing 95% of the olives here on site, and bottling the oil. We supply the oil in two bottle sizes of 250ml & 500ml. We can also supply larger sized cans if required. If you are into recycling, then just bring a sterilised 750ml or 1L bottle along and have it refilled from the can. We even give a little discount for returning the oil bottles.

So come along and try one of our four wonderful olive oils.



Gourmet Deli

Gourmet-deli has lemon curd blueberry scones , roasted strawberry shortcake . Gluten free pork pies, gluten free roasted strawberry sweet tarts .
Gluten free spinach feta quiche.
Great large jumbo sausage rolls and many other tantalising homemade treats.
Best wishes for 2024 May all you dreams come true.

This Sunday Andrew will have delicious, sweet and juicy Apricots for sale at the Marlborough Farmer's Market.

Freshly picked peaches  ...wow! They smell so sweet and taste delicious!!!

Mississippi Herbs

 

Mississippi Herbs has just a few new season's jalapeños, the beginning of the deluge of zucchini and scallopini, and the remainder of their new season garlic which has been incredibly popular (and pungent)!




SharpAs Tool Tip

I have had many queries whether I sharpen scissors. Yes I sharpen all types from specialised hairdresser scissors, to fabric scissors, and general purpose scissors.

So if you have these or any other tools, knives, or kitchen utensils that need sharpening see me at the market or contact me on 027 444 5535.
cheers Ron
