This market is truly out of this world. The varieties of goods are unique and alternative, as are the retailers. The market is set in a tranquil bush setting and features homemade and home grown goods. You will find everything from beautiful crystals to hand knitted beanies and scarves. They serve up delicious lentil burgers and for a drink to warm up the senses, chai tea is a delight.
Over the years the stalls have changed from offering shrivelled fruit and vegetables labelled as 'organic' to offering good quality (mainly organic) produce at competitive prices. There are also a number of prepared food stalls which now offer very good value without the cardboard taste often associated with 'wholefoods'. The Thai food stall offers particularly good value.
St Andrews is 35 kilometres from the city and is held every Saturday morning from 8am until 2pm rain, hail or shine. Entry is free.
