The pick of Waikato's autumn harvest will be on offer at the annual Autumn Harvest Festival next weekend.
Friends of Hamilton Gardens are taking advantage of new season produce and are holding another Autumn Harvest Festival to raise funds for the proposed Mansfield Garden.
Local orchards generously donate fresh produce for the event. Friends and supporters also donate fruit and vegetables from their gardens.
The volunteers box them up and sell them at good prices at the festival.
Also on offer is home baking, preservatives, popcorn, Southern style cheese rolls, a sausage sizzle and a second hand garden books and magazines stall (in conjunction with Rotary).
