Capital Region Farmers Market will be OPEN this Saturday.
Capital Region Farmers Market will be OPEN this Saturday 19 February from 7am to 11.30am. All your favourite farmers and producers will be back with the best and freshest produce in the Capital Region.
The Market and all stallholders appreciate the incredible support of the Canberra community, and can’t wait to see all the friendly faces back this week.
The show of support from our visitors and all of the kind messages we received last weekend were really appreciated, and we were happy to see many people finding alternative ways to support their favourite stallholders.
At this week’s Market, customers will find the region’s best seasonal produce including new season apples and figs. On Saturday we welcome a new stallholder from Yenda NSW who will be selling figs, and we also see the return of Majura Valley Farm with their worm castings and compost as well as an assortment of vegetables from their farm garden.
Access will be via Old Well Station Road into our usual carpark with pedestrian access via Gate 4 (service station entry).
And don’t forget, the Market will be closed next Saturday 26 February for the Royal Canberra Show.

Homeleigh Grove is one of our original stallholders, and their almost two decades of Market attendance is a testament to their dedication to providing high quality olive products to the Canberra region.
At the Market, we’re very lucky to be able to offer fresh tomatoes year-round due to some of our producers who have hydroponic and green house set ups. But in February (weather permitting!), marketgoers can experience the rich flavours of naturally grown varieties, in particular heirloom species.
