There is a local Marquetta where providers of food from all over the world converge on a Saturday night, live music plays and community comes together to eat and relax. The following morning the same venue is a 'farmers market' providing a range of freshly grown produce and a central meeting place to enjoy cooked food, coffee, music from buskers, flower stalls and massage.
