A Sunday in Bay of Islands – farmers’ market Kerikeri
A year ago we were enjoying our first days of our honeymoon in New Zealand. We spent the first week in the North (of the North Island). Well, we drove up to the very North, Cape Reinga, but we also enjoyed the way up to there. On Sunday we went to the farmers’ market of Kerikeri.
Hace exactamente un año empezabamos nuestra luna de miel en Nueva Zelanda. La primera semana la dedicamos al norte (de la Isla Norte). De camino al más remoto norte, Cape Reinga, disfrutamos por ejemplo del dominical farmers’ market en Kerikei.
The Bay of Islands Farmers’ Market began in August 2004, making it one of the longer-established Farmers’ Markets in the New Zealand.
El Farmers’ Market de Bay of Islands empezó en Agosto de 2004, siendo uno de los más antiguos en Nueva Zelanda.
In a farmers market you can buy fresh products directly from the producer: eggs, bread, vegetables, jam, …
En estos mercados se pueden comprar directamente del agricultor o fabricante productos frescos como huevos, pan, verduras, mermeladas…
we bought some delicious bread, veggies, homemade jam and eggs.
Nosotros compramos un pan que estaba delicioso, verduras, mermelada casera y huevos.
But our main recommendation is to go there with an empty stomach, you can get a rich breakfast and many food treats.
Lo que si os recomendaría es ir con la tripa vacia porque también hay puestos donde desayunar a lo bestia.
Paul had a big breakfast and I only have pancakes and fresh orange juice as afterwards I went for the skydiving.
Paul se puso las botas y yo sólo comí unos pancakes y zumo de naranja recién exprimido, porque después del mercado iba a tirarme en paracaidas y no era plan de echarlo todo de nuevo 🙂
Is there also farmers’ markets where you live?
Hay mercados de este tipo dónde tú vives?

I have lived in New Zealand for 10 years, and been to Bay of Islands at least 5 times, and never made it to the Kerikere farmers market. Maybe next time.

We only managed to go to this one, so I cannot compare with any other market, but the breakfast was fantastic 🙂
