The Wastebusters Sustainable Christmas Market will return on Saturday November 22 and Wastebusters is putting out its ‘last call’ for potential stallholders to join the lineup.

The annual market, now in its fifth year, fills the Wastebusters car park with a lively mix of local stalls, food and a relaxed community vibe.

Shoppers can expect to find everything from upcycled clothing and handmade ceramics to natural skincare, art prints, jewellery and locally grown plants.

Wastebusters is looking for some additional stallholders - who might make, grow or create something that helps people live more sustainably, or use materials that are locally sourced.

Local artist Jodie Shellard was a stallholder last year and she said it was a great experience.

“Last year was my first market, and I was a little bit nervous. If I’m totally honest, the sustainable part of it was rather daunting, but I quickly learnt it’s a totally non-judgemental event,” Jodie said.

“It’s more about supporting local, and that in itself is sustainable. It’s a great chance for networking and meeting other stallholders, who are all so lovely.

“It was really worth it for me sales-wise too. I can’t wait to be back again this year.”

Anyone who would like to apply for a stall can fill in the form here or contact [email protected].

This year’s Wastebusters Sustainable Christmas Market will feature kai from the Delhi Hut food truck and Cat Rescue Wānaka’s bakesale.

It will take place on November 22 from 9am-2pm.
