I’ve gone for a semi golden theme with photos.

Colourful carrots from Virgara’s Garden, beautiful Baklava from H Kouzina Mas, succulent sweet potatoes from Jelly.Port Elliot and bountiful brown onions from  Gina’s Kitchen & Field Berries.

Hey Bagels are looking good, Con and Harry Fresh Fruit are here, Ashley at Mrs Clucks has the BBQ going, VICTORFISH has your fish for Good Friday.

The VHFM gives Fleurieu Community Foundation a donation of $5,000.

At last Saturday’s market the VHFM Committee presented Jess Stevens, Deputy Chair of the Fleurieu Community Foundation with a donation of $5,000.

The Foundation does excellent work in our community and our committee voted again, having donated the same amount last year, to donate to them this year.

In his speech about the donation, Market Chair, Neil Hosking said “All the committee members are volunteers, from the community and stallholders, who give their time to make sure the market runs smoothly.”

“Since it has been run by volunteers, over the last four years, the market has given back to the community more than $30,000, representing 85% of membership fees.”
