Hobart (Tas): Tasmanian Farmers Gate
Hobart TAS 7000
With a ring din din of the farm bell at 9am sharp, the bustling trade at the farm gate market begins.
Make your way through a collection of prime Tasmanian fresh, seasonal produce and artisan products where the state's tastiest and most creative foodstuffs surround you.
Pick up your delicious supplies then sit and enjoy a coffee, read the weekend paper and soak up the atmosphere.
Amongst the stalls are Brett and Laura from Tickleback Ridge who are currently selling their wine varieties of Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc. Drop by for a sample, chat and take home a tasty drop for that Sunday lunch.
At the Farm Gate Market there are four vital ingredients that are the foundation of the market:
FRESH - the goods for sale are so fresh they are picked the night before and delivered straight to the market each Sunday morning
LOCAL - everything sold must be grown or produced within the geographical boundaries of Tasmania
SEASONAL - strict guidelines on the origin of food means that eating seasonally is the norm rather than the exception. And as people become more in touch with seasonality, preparing and eating food once again becomes a celebration of taste, flavour and goodness. It also means better quality, better value and is better for our environment.
COMMUNITY - only the people that grow, raise, produce, extract or even pluck the goods for sale can trade at the market.
WHEN: Each Sunday from 9am - 1pm
WHERE: Melville Street Outdoor Car Park, Hobart
