🎃 A Special Market Day – The Grand Pumpkin Weigh-In! 🎃The Matakana Village Farmers' Market is on every Saturday, 8 AM–1 PM – rain, hail, or shine! But this Saturday, March 29, it’s extra special… because The Grand Pumpkin Weigh-In is happening from 10 AM–12 PM! 🌱🎃
Alongside your favourite artisan treats, fresh produce, live music, and buzzing market vibes, we’ll be crowning this year’s pumpkin-growing champions! Whether it’s the biggest, tiniest, ugliest, or most creative gourd, you’ll see some impressive (and quirky!) homegrown pumpkins battling it out.
🍂 Coming to compete? Get there early! Pumpkins must be registered and on display by 9:30 AM to qualify. Complete your entry form before the event: https://www.matakanavillage.co.nz/whats-new/the-grand-pumpkin-growing-contest-2025
🐶 Bringing your pup? While doggies can’t enter the market itself, they’ll be pampered at the dog minding station (gold coin donation to charity).
🛍 Make a day of it! Our independent boutiques, restaurants, local makers, and cinema are all open every day—so there’s plenty to explore after the market.
📍 Matakana Village Farmers’ Market – 8 AM to 1 PM, every Saturday!
💬 Tag your market mates & see you there for a pumpkin-filled, foodie-friendly, feel-good kind of day! 🎃✨
