While most people are still in their pyjamas…
Utes are pulling in.
Coffee machines are warming up.
Fresh produce is being unloaded.
Freezers are humming, keeping seafood perfectly chilled.
Crates of fruit and veg are being lifted into place.
Tables are unfolding.
Music gear is being set up.
All before 8am!
At the Victor Harbor Farmers Market, we trade from 8am to 12:30pm — but for many stallholders, the day starts long before that.
So by the time you arrive, the stalls are set, the coffee is pouring, and the market is ready for another Saturday morning.
This week The Petite Baker will be there with her beautiful handmade treats, and Koda’s Kitchen will be keeping the dog treat stall busy with plenty for the market’s four-legged regulars.
The regular weekly crew will be there too — the ones who’ve been up since dawn making it all possible.
Gina’s Kitchen & Field Berries
Jelly:PortElliot + Fleurieu Milk Company
Seven Flowers: Alchemy & Cacao
Slow Mover Coffee + Small Town Dumplings
Virgara’s Garden
The Worm Guy
The lineup shifts slightly from week to week, but everyone finds their way back in due time.
Once everything’s in place, Dean Bird will bring the live music that gives the market its easy Saturday rhythm.All you have to do is show up — the hard work’s already been done.
