Farmers' Market

Carterton Farmers’ Market

A weekly local-produce market held in the centre of town at Memorial Square. Carterton Farmers’ Market offers a wonderful hub to the community, not to mention the amazing fresh fruit, veges, honey, crafts and more.

OPENING: The market runs every Sunday in November – May.
Plus currently every Sunday in Winter (June – October).

We open from 9:00am to 12:30pm under the shade of the trees in Memorial Square, Carterton. We move under the veranda on the pavement of SH2 opposite during Winter and poor weather.

Fresh vegetables

Fresh, Local Produce

Our produce goal is simple – locally sourced where possible, reducing carbon-miles, maximising freshness whilst also supporting Wairarapa producers.

Meet up at the Market

Meet Up For A Chat
