5. Grainger Market
It’s been part of Newcastle’s producing culture for decades and it still continues to be a source of high quality, low priced local produce.
Today the Go Volunteer team headed to Grainger Market to find out a little more and to get involved with the Grainger Market Arts Residency. If you wish to get involved and to see what events they have planned, take a look at their social media. Great work Mike! pic.twitter.com/BFbMO0halj
