Weekly Eco Market in New Brighton

New Brighton Project is currently working on establishing NZ’s first weekly Eco Market in New Brighton

which will be launched on the 31st of October, 10am-2pm.

We are still looking for stallholders, workshop presenters and non-profit organisations who would like to be part of this exciting venture.

Here some examples of what we are looking for: Scrumptious wholesome food: spray free or organically grown fruit and vegetables, nuts, seeds, legumes, herbs and spices, herb teas or fair trade tea and coffee, bread, cake and other baked goods, cheeses, free range eggs, oils, spreads, dips, chutneys, sauces, confectionery, etc Environmentally friendly products: household and cleaning products, skin care, cloth nappies and other baby products, stationery (recycled or upcycled paper), clothing (merino, hemp, organic cotton, made in NZ), shopping bags and anything that helps reduce waste Plants and gardening supplies: Heritage seeds, seedlings, small plants, organic fertilizer. Businesses: We are happy for any business with an environmental focus to promote their services or products at our Eco Market. Businesses or organisations promoting a healthy lifestyle and sustainable living in the broadest sense are welcome. Workshops and presentations: We would like to offer our customers a variety of informative and fun workshops about anything and everything that fits within our agenda. That can be anything from healthy, sustainable living, communication training, parenting, travel talks, hands on arts and crafts to yoga and meditation. Local community groups: As long as they share the values of New Brighton Project we would like to give local community groups the opportunity to promote themselves, raise awareness and possibly advertise for new members. Where possible we would like to offer some fundraising opportunities for these groups.

National and international organisations: We welcome organisations with a focus on environmental issues and healthy living to have a stand at our market.
