neighbourgoods market

The Financial Times magazine How To Spend It recently featured Cape Town as part of their smooth weekend guide, Maria Schollenbarger wrote the following about the Neighbourgoods Market

“By contrast, Woodstock, a few miles to the east, still sits under the “up-and-coming” rubric. Vendors hawk pawpaw and Nelspruit oranges from carts in the street but it is also home to the Neighbourgoods Market - a dynamic scene of organic food traders and local fashion and product designers. Held every Saturday in a sprawling defunct biscuit factory that was refurbished in 2006, it’s a prime people-watching experience. Several little shops line it’s perimeter, peddling ceramics, antique cutlery, handmade tea towels and vintage lamps, and, at lunchtime, you can feast on falafel, Cape Malay curries or oyster shucked while you wait, washed down with sulphite-free pinotage.”
