Friendly Feilding Farmers Market Celebrates Matariki Feilding’s Farmers Market will celebrate the Maori New Year On Friday June 27. The market will be joined by Whanau Ataahua Beautiful Families Trust in bringing the celebrations to the people with the aim to gather the community together to enjoy locally grown kai, experience Whanauora, and Maori culture. With kapa haka performances by local schools, and modern-day hangi available for lunch in the Square - Matariki day is sure to be a tasty feast for all. This celebration will be a stepping stone for the community to build on and grow next year. “This is a great forum to learn more about Matariki and ‘Whanau Ataahua Beautiful Families Trust’ is leading the way”, says Raewyn Loader project manager of Feilding Promotion. Feilding Promotion will partner with the Trust who will be inviting other organisations, groups, clubs and schools to bring family and friends together to share each other’s skills and learn about Maori customs, and history through storytelling, song and dance, carving and weaving and other art forms.
Be quick to purchase your modern Maori hangi for a 12-1pm lunch. There are lots more great events happening in Feilding throughout June and July. Dennis March is playing at the Rangitikei Club on July 6, and there’s something for the girls when the Sydney Hotshots Male Revue show visits the Club on July 11. Feilding’s Coach House museum is open to all those interested in the history of the region, and entry is free for anyone who has a residents card. Ms Loader describes the museum as a world class facility in the heart of Feilding. For city folk looking for a taste of rural life, there are tours of the Feilding Sale Yards every Friday from 11am with tickets available from the Feilding Information Centre. All of these events plus the wide range of boutique shops and eateries in the town center, and of course the friendly atmosphere, and free parking make Feilding a welcoming, vibrant stop for everyone to enjoy.
