Whangārei Growers Market

The Whangārei Growers Market is Northland’s original and most vibrant farmers market, bringing together local growers and producers every Saturday morning in the heart of the city. Founded in 1998, it has become a weekly tradition for many locals and visitors who come to enjoy the fresh produce, friendly atmosphere, and direct connection to the people who grow their food.

Held rain or shine from 6:00am to 10:00am at 17 Water Street, the market offers an ever-changing array of seasonal fruit and vegetables, locally made bread and pastries, free-range eggs, meats, honey, flowers, plants, and more. Everything sold at the market is either grown or made by the stallholders themselves, ensuring that all profits stay within the community and supporting Northland’s local economy.

Beyond produce, the Whangārei Growers Market is a place where people come to catch up over coffee, listen to live music, and discover the richness of Northland’s food culture. From regulars who arrive early to beat the crowds to families enjoying a leisurely start to the weekend, the market attracts a wide range of customers who value freshness, sustainability, and community connection.

Whether you’re stocking up your pantry or just after a fresh bunch of flowers and a warm croissant, the market is a must-visit for anyone in Whangārei on a Saturday morning. Come and meet the growers, taste the difference, and enjoy one of the best local experiences Whangārei has to offer.
