As the Rangitīkei gears up for one of the biggest events on its calendar, Project Marton is warming up the festivities with a raft of garage sales on Saturday.
There are around 15 "garages" signed up from Marton and Bulls for the Community Garage Sale Trail, with people able to pick up trail maps from the Village Green on the corner of Broadway and High St in Marton from 7.30am.
This comes three weeks before the Marton Market Day on November 28, one of the biggest events of the year for the district.
Communications assistant of Project Marton Fiona Moorhouse said not releasing the trail map beforehand was done as a safeguard this year to comply with contact tracing guidelines.
People will sign in or scan the code when they pick up their trail map.
