Hi CJ
I would like to share my favourite market. It's Auckland Farmers Market at the Alexandra Park Trotting Grounds in Epsom held every Sunday from 9am to 1pm.Don't have breakfast before you go because they have an amazing variety of food stalls. There are hand made traditional Bulgarian cheeses, crepes, macaroons, breads, empanadas and a lot more.
I get my weekly vegetables from here which are picked from the market gardeners that morning! The thing I like most is that you can get some more unusual vegetables like celeriac and baby fennel.
Check it out!
Rob
PLEASE NOTE After a comment from William I'll need to check somehow - he went along and found it non-existant. All I can find online says the same thing - "open every Sunday, located on Campbell Crescent inside the twin stables complex of the Alexandra Park Trotting Grounds in Epsom. Take the bus to Manukau Road and walk to Campbell Crescent. The bus takes roughly 25 minutes from central Auckland".
