Woodend Community Farmers’ Market is an accredited VFMA Farmers’ Market which means that you know that the food you are buying is locally grown and produced.
Now in our 11th year the Woodend Community Farmers’ Market is a showcase of regional produce with over 80 regular and seasonal stallholders from within the Macedon Ranges and the wider region.
Accreditation with the Victorian Farmers' Market Association (VFMA), means that customers can have confidence in the authenticity of the producers within the market, and have the opportunity to build direct relationships with the people who grew or made the produce on offer.
The market hosts stallholders that are carefully selected to compliment each other and that sell essential groceries such as fruit, vegetables, meat, bread, coffee beans, wine, honey, cheese, cleaning products, skincare, meat and specialty goods, along with live music (restrictions permitting), hot food and coffee.
Support our regional food producers and stock up delicious fresh produce at our monthly community farmers' markets held in Woodend.
WHEN: 1st Saturday of every month - 9am to 1pm
WHERE: Cnr. of Forest and High Streets, Woodend
