WHAT YOU VISIT
Old Packhouse Market Café, Bakery & Deli and Kauri Workshop
Discover how one family has converted this heritage building into a thriving Farmers Market. Noted as the largest marketplace in the Bay of Islands, growers and artisan food purveyors gather here to sell a wide selection of locally-sourced produce, cheeses, flowers, wines, baked goods and exceptional Northland arts and crafts. Unique island products offer a glimpse at regional culinary traditions, while the friendly vendors provide a wonderful opportunity to learn about New Zealand's cultural and gastronomic traditions. In the adjacent Kauri Workshop, New Zealand native timbers kauri, rimu, pohutukawa and totara are crafted into an exceptional array of items, many in the traditions of Maori art and design. Hewed on sight, some of the woods have been carbon dated to up to 50,000 years old.
