2007-12-01 20:33:28   The best thing that has happened to Masterton during 07. I shop there almost every Saturday morning. Lorraine.

2007-12-02 15:23:24   Nice to see the WFM birthday mentioned on the Wairarapa Greens website. —Tom.

2007-12-03 08:46:10   I am wondering if it would be useful if stall holders would let us know the dates they are not going to be at the market? We could simply set up a special page for this and you (stall holder) provide the information yourself. What do you think? Just type your reply comment in the comments space and click on the button "Add Comment". —TomvanBodgraven

2007-12-04 09:09:55   I think it would be great to know when a stall-holder was not going to be at the market. It would also be nice to know about special seasonal products arriving, etc. Hope I have done this right. Joanne Watson —135.239.42.63
