After five years of bringing you the Marlborough Farmers’ Market newsletter, it’s time for me to pass the pen. In 2018, on this very day, I penned my first piece, casting a spotlight on our incredible stallholders and their nourishing offerings, each edition designed to kindle your taste buds. Through 245 newsletters, countless social media entries and press releases I’ve savoured the task to keep you informed and engaged. Thrilled to have been part of the market's lively tapestry, witnessing the growth and success of many start-up business, I now hand the newsletter to the Market Manager. It has been a pleasure to contribute to the vibrancy of the market, and to connect with our awesome stallholders and you over this time. Here's to the continued success of the Marlborough Farmers' Market! Stay curious, stay inspired, and keep relishing the abundance of goodness our market brings you each week. You will still find me with my spray-free greens at the Community Stall, so I am not going far. I and our stallholders l forward to seeing you Sunday! Sigrun Steinhagen, Marketing and Promotions Manager

Sundays stand for Fresh, Local, and Satisfying! Meet Anthony, one of our local market-goer! On Sundays’ he gets a bag of crisp juicy tree-ripened apples for work, and some for his wife, for her delightful baking, and some refreshing apple juice.
