Wellington shopping is about farm-gate prices and artisan finds, not malls or brand stores. The town's agricultural heartland produces dried fruit, wine, biltong, and preserves that sell at the source for a fraction of retail prices. Church Street adds heritage charm with antique shops and a Saturday morning market. Come with a cooler box and an empty boot -- this is a town where you shop to stock up, not to browse.
