A farewell look at the Neighbourgoods Market

A photo from the early days
Mark Bayly and son came to visit his father, Peter, who sold his port next to us
  Peter Kampmeinert, visiting from Holland, enjoyed tasting it

Two of our more popular products
 Yvonne Kampmeinert
Marina and Georgie selling The Creamery's ice cream near us
 Georgie Berens is an art student 
She drew this caricature of us
 Cameron Munro, one of the market's owners
Jessie, vamping it up
 Fritz, who sells Pesto Princess pestos
It was even a good place to be on a rainy winter day
with the tented area getting wet
and cold, but still smiling
 Arnold & Denise Couzyn with a table of Wayne Rademeyer's buffalo mozzarella
 Julie Carter sells fish at Ocean Jewels
 and Richard sold French cheeses and patés
 Naughty boys selling ice cream to Eskimos
 Good fresh veg
 and a young admirer
Pesto Princess has generous free samples,
Emily Gammon helping the fans
 The focus is now more on selling things to eat and drink in situ than on selling produce
 A popular venue for social activity, "market fare" and craft beer
 and a smile on our last day
No regrets, we had a good time while it lasted
We wish continued success to all the friends we have made there in the last 3½ years
