Piggery Secondhand Bookstore Whangarei

An unusual place name for a store selling books, the owners of The Piggery are proud of their heritage.

Moving the books here from an old pig barn outside of town, they wanted to hang onto their name, while the history of the new premises involves a time as a motorcycle workshop and a garden centre. Exotic trees remain in the back yard.

Big for a bookstore, this outlet serves the area well and has done for many years. Next door is an ethical trader named the "Himalayan Trading Post' and the product variety within is seemingly endless.
