Farmers’ markets are a great place to shop to be able to buy direct from a producer, get the best and freshest food for the family while you chat with the person who made or grew your food. It is also a good place to catch up with the neighbours, walk the dog and can be a fun day out for everyone in the household.
But get ready for a market day that is dialling up the fun factor. Specifically designed to be about having an entertaining day for the whole family!
Slow Food Melbourne are having a RELOCATION PARTY for Spotswood Farmers’ Market and invite you, the fam and the neighbours to come along to enjoy.
Council are redeveloping the Mary St Reserve in Spotswood so the market has found a new home at Spotswood Primary School.
We are planning to have a carnival atmosphere with loads of entertainment as well as our usual fabulous stallholders with fruit, vegetables, gourmet pies, gozleme and other Turkish foods, freshly squeezed juices, Scottish food truck and haggis, fair trade coffee, ethical dairy produce, local wines, pasta, pickles, cakes and pastries. Even your furry friends are catered for with a specialised dog treat stall.
While you hang out with the pooch and the neighbours the kids can be in the playground or at the petting zoo, getting their face painted or join in a kite making workshop. No reason to be bored at this market!
And all FREE!!
Expect music, food demonstrations and workshops and there really is something for everyone.
SEE YOU IN SPOTTY!! Put it in the calendar
A NEW VENUE deserves a PARTY DAY
Come along and bring the family and friends as there is going to be lots going on.
