Locals flock to Stuarts Point Holiday Markets Nambucca Valley Nambucca Valley by News Of The Area - Modern Media - January 16, 2023 A walk along the stalls. THANKS to a reprieve in the intermittent rainy weather blessing Stuarts Point, the well planned and executed inaugural Stuarts Point Holiday Market went ahead on Sunday 8 January, with loads of stalls offering a large variety of wares, and plenty of visitors wandering around making purchases and chatting during the morning, generally adding to the cordial atmosphere. From the northern reach of the foreshore park, with displays of lollies and useful kitchen gadgets, heading south, beyond a unique display of jewellery, the artisan leather and craft work, and the distinct aroma of barbecuing bacon and egg rolls emanating from the Stuarts Point and District Community Organisation (SPaDCO) stall, to the expansive Eungai Farmers Market combined stall loaded with local, chemical free produce, the market stroll ends at the iconic footbridge that passively connects the village to the ocean.
