The second-last market for the year will be the biggest since Olive Tree started in 2008.
More than 200 stalls, stocked with lovingly crafted items, will ensure there’s a gift for even the person who believes they have it all.
“Olive Tree really aims to encourage creativity, to connect, inspire and empower the creative community,” Olive Tree organiser Justine Gaudry said.
“We encourage Novocastrians, who are mindful of conscious consumerism, and those seeking to actively support small, local businesses to shop local and handmade this Christmas at Olive Tree.”
Many well known Australian creative’s will showcase their work on the day.
