If you like when your Saturday morning plans include a coffee, fresh produce and a little bit of a wander - gather up some reusable bags and plan a visit to Bentleigh Farmers Market!
Held on the forth Saturday of the month at East Bentleigh Primary School, this lovely local market has a big focus on fresh, seasonal produce. There’s plenty to browse, with farmers and producers bringing along locally grown and made goodies.
And Mamma loves that there are no resellers here, so you’re buying straight from the people who know, grow and make everything. So you can be sure you’re filling your shopping bags with fresh stuff that hasn’t had to travel far.
Even when the weather is not very favourable for marketing there is always a steady stream of people heading in and coming back out with their bags full of produce! Clearly, a bit of rain won’t stop locals getting their hands on the goodies on offer here.
The market is hosted at and run as a fundraiser for East Bentleigh Primary School, helping support the school and its Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Program. So your Saturday morning shop is doing a little bit of good too! And this also means there’s a little playground right beside the market stalls area too, so if the weather is fine, with all the tasty food and drink on offer you might want to settle in for a couple of hours!
