Regional Farmers Markets

Regional Farmers Markets manages 12 regional and metropolitan markets around Victoria.

The purpose of a Regional Farmers Market is to reconnect shoppers to the people who produce their food for their mutual benefit and enjoyment.

Consumers have become more discerning about the quality of the food they place on their tables, Farmers Markets are providing an opportunity for you to talk with producers and learn more about the various products, nutrients, uses and innovative recipes etc.... on offer at farmers markets.

Regional Farmers Markets run numerous markets that sell fresh produce and food in a variety of locales.

MARKET UPDATE - June 17, 2020

Hi everyone,
As you know we closed the Newtown Farmers Market in late March due to COVID-19 and the requirements of our new site partner, BVAC.

Since then, like many businesses, we have been very badly impacted and have had to make significant changes in our business in order to be able to continue.

Specifically, we have had to let go of some very key members of our team (which was VERY hard and very sad) - and scale back all of our operations.

The outcome of this is that instead of running 15+ markets each month, we are now only running 8 markets each month - one on each Saturday and one on each Sunday.

Unfortunately, the Newtown Farmers Market is one of the ones we have had to put 'on hold' for the time being.

We are very sad about this as we love all our markets and we have operated this market for a long time.

Our hope and intention is that once we have stabilised and rebuilt a little that we will be in a position to revisit this decision. But for now we need to focus on the rebuild and on our short to medium future.

We would like to thank all of the wonderful stalls and people who have supported this Market This has been an incredibly hard decision to make.

Many of our stalls are now in the process of applying to join one of the 8 continuing Markets we are operating, so we encourage you to follow our main page - Regional Farmers Markets for updates.

We will keep this page open as we very much hope to be able to announce a relaunch of this Market in the future.

Thank you again for your support
Claire & Melissa
