基督城的农贸集市

就位于邻近市中心的里卡顿木从的里卡顿木屋前

每个星期六早上9点至下午1点

这里停车位不多

因此建议提早去寻找停车位

Christchurch Farmers’ Market is set on the doorstep site of the Riccarton House in the Riccarton Bush. It is open every Saturday from 9am to 1pm. There are not much parking spaces available near to the market thus it is suggested to reach earlier to find a parking space.

市集的另一边就是河流

成群的鸭子在河里

也有长凳让人休息

The other side of the market is a stream where there are swamps of ducks. Long benches are also placed for people to rest.

You won’t be disappointed as there is usually a dazzling display of fruit and vegetable, dairy, sausages and a great selection of food vendors on site, including all sorts of international offerings to tempt you.

基督城农贸集市致力于成为零废物集市

教育大家把垃圾分类

咖啡渣也送给顾客用来种植菜园

未来将要求摊主使用可分解的包装袋

也鼓励顾客自带环保袋

Christchurch Farmers’ Market is working toward zero waste in the market. People are educated to recycle their rubbish in the correct bins and the coffee grinds are also given to the customers or added to the vege garden.

In the future waste management plan, the stall holders will be requested to use compostable packing and to have plastic bag free market with customers bringing their own reusable bags.

逛完集市后

还可到欧裔先驱移民迪恩斯的小木屋

见证坎特伯雷平原上现存最古老的建筑

After the market trip, you can also visit the Deans Cottage which was built by the Europe pioneer migrants Dean, which is now the oldest building on the Canterbury Plains, or being surrounded by the plants in the Riccarton Bush for some fresh air.

2011年基督城地震期间

这可归功于1987年至1995年期间
建筑物足见加强了改建了以符合地震标准

The museum sustained minor damage to its façade during the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, but remains structurally sound. Most of the collections are unharmed. This can perhaps be attributed to the progressive strengthening and renovating of the buildings to earthquake standards between 1987 and 1995.

纽西兰樱桃季节 New Zealand Cherry Season

每年的十二月至一月
是纽西兰的樱桃季节
纽西兰盛产樱桃的克伦威尔
更是涌入大批打工度假背包客

Every year in the month of December and January is the cherry season in New Zealand. New Zealand’s “cherry town” – Cromwell also attract a large number of backpackers from Working Holiday.


你可能拿不到樱桃园的工作
却想体验亲自摘樱桃
在纽西兰也有许多的PYO樱桃园
即是“自行采摘”的意思
之后再按重量付钱

You may not have the chance to work in the cherry orchard, but would like to try to pick cherries by yourself. There are also some PYO cherry orchards in New Zealand, which means “pick your own” and you pay based on the weight.


趁着季节的到来
价钱更大众化
但樱桃不利于保存
如果买了大量
记得要放在冰箱中存放

Once the cherry season is here, the price gets more affordable. However, cherries are very perishable, so remember to refrigerate them after purchase, it can be kept fresh in the refrigerator.
