Autumn Reflections
Experience Upper Hutt recently gifted to the city of Upper Hutt a sculpture made of steel and acrylic materials which was designed by Chris Wilson and assisted by Mary Archibald. This tree is the first of four that will be erected throughout the city illustrating the four seasons. We want to thank Chris and Mary for their creative input and the time they invested in having the first sculpture erected from the design of the tree, getting building consent through to the construction. Great work ladies!
Upper Hutt Farmers' Market
As you all know, our authentic Farmers' Market opens on Sunday 1st of November from 9am til 1pm. The market will run every Sunday whether rain or shine and we hope it will become an important part of the Upper Hutt shopping experience.
