Saturdays 9.00am - 1.00pm

The Christchurch Farmers Market at Riccarton House is one of the best food markets in Christchurch. On a sunny Saturday, there is no better place to be. 

Located in one of the last native bushland areas in Christchurch (and home to the city’s oldest house), the setting is achingly twee. The combination of live music, history, frenzied ducks and knowing that you are buying your groceries direct from the grower adds to this feeling.

Stalls include organic fruit, vegetables and herbs, fresh bread, cakes and cupcakes, olive oils, coffee, chocolate, cheese, smoked salmon, gourmet seasonings and smoked garlic, honey… everything you need for the pantry. Ready to eat hot pancakes, pies and dumplings are also available if you feel like a little brunch on the river bank. So find a perch, relax, enjoy the atmosphere and let the rest of your Saturday morning unfold as it should.
