The Farmers’ Markets NZ 2025 Conference:

Watch the opening session of the ‘2025 NZ Farmers Markets Conference’ an ‘In Conversation’ session with AFMA’s Jane Adams and Angela Clifford, CEO, Eat New Zealand.
Twenty-plus years ago they collaborated to establish the Barossa Farmers’ Market and Jane helped chart the course for NZ’s farmers’ market sector supported by NZTE (NZ Trade & Enterprise).  There are now 26 farmers’ markets in NZ!

The intervening decades have seen farmers’ markets thrive on both sides of the Tasman.  Jane and Angela look back, and forward… from first dug plans to current and future challenges.  Enjoy the ride!
