VHFM Open this Saturday Ready for Mother’s Day

We are open as usual on Saturday. Con and Harry will be back with us. Whoo hoo 😁

There’ll be no change to the Covid-19 restrictions that have been in place for some time now.

Please continue to observe them so that we can keep the market running.

Shop & Go.
Single shoppers if possible, no families.
Maintain social distancing at all times.
Pick up produce by a bag, if you touch it you buy it.

I’ll have a full list of Stallholders here on Friday. And don’t forget Sunday is Mother’s Day 😁

VHFM is on this morning with lots of goodies!

Just a tad chilly, quite pleasant really.

Kate is back at Chocolique, some great ideas for Mother’s Day next Sunday.

Dora and Bona have a great range of sweet and savoury at H Kouzina Mas.

Gala, Pink lady, Grannies and Fuji apples at Gina’s Kitchen & Field Berries, and Gerard has his semi hard goats cheese at Lilyarra Cheeses, plus the delicious soft cheeses.

Thank you for your continued support of our market, helping us to continue to trade during this difficult time, keeping you supplied with the fresh produce you have enjoyed being able to buy for over 11 years every Saturday morning.

8.00am till 12.30pm

VHFM – We’re back again tomorrow, a cool one.

We’re back again tomorrow, a cool one, maybe a spot of rain.

Please keep doing what you have been doing so well, shop and go, maintaining the 1.5m social distancing. No families, single shoppers preferred.
If there are couples, one only at a stall at a time. Queue at stalls to keep up the social distancing. Pick up produce by a bag, if you touch it you buy it. If you prefer, ask the stallholders to pick it up for you.

All the Farmers Markets that are operating in SA are doing so under these very clear directions, it allows us to still bring our produce to you as safely as possible for you, our members and customers, and for our stallholders in this Coronavirus lockdown period.

Chilly morning here at the Victor Harbor Farmers Market

It’s chilly, and we’re set up well with signage, as well as stallholders spaced out.

Inman Valley Poultry aren’t here, sorry if I mislead anyone by saying they would be.

If the rain stays away it looks like we should have a good morning, people are respecting the social distancing rules, doing their shopping and moving on.
8.00am till 12.30pm.

There’ll be plenty fresh produce @Saturday’s market

There will be plenty of fresh produce for you at tomorrow’s market.

Virgara’s Garden, Gina’s Kitchen & Field Berries, Con and Harry and the Coffee Club all have fresh veggies and fruit.

Please, don’t crowd the stalls, keep 1.5m apart. Only pick up what you are going to buy, and do that with a bag. This is so important.

Albert at From the Grain will select your bread for you. Neil’s seafood at VICTORFISH is very safe, but again, please queue behind the counter staying 1.5m apart. The same goes for Chocolique , Anna’s Homestyle Baking, Feather & Peck and Lilyarra Cheeses.

We are out in the Fresh air, but we must still practice social distancing, not shake hands, cough or sneeze into our elbows, and of course, not be there if feeling unwell.

Apart from all that we should have a good morning!

Southern Fleurieu Flora on Gardening Australia!

The weather on Saturday looks like being beautiful, just right for gardening!

A year ago Sophie Thomson and the Gardening Australia TV crew filmed the garden of our stallholders Gill and John Muller from Southern Fleurieu Flora.

It’s going to be on Gardening Australia this Friday, 30/8, ABC 2 at 7.30pm, part of their spring show.

So have a look, then pop in and see if Gill is still standing after the nervous 12 month wait! She’ll have plenty of tubestock for sale, after all it is spring on Sunday!

Click here for the interview with Gill!

Stallholder of the Week – Gill Muller, Southern Fleurieu Flora

Stallholder of the week is Gill Muller from Southern Fleurieu Flora. She’s been selling native plants at the market for six years now, and knows the growing conditions on the Southern Fleurieu pretty well, as well as gardening herself in Port Elliot.

Gill sources nearly all her tubestock from State Flora Nursery, having worked there from 1999 till 2011 she can access the good stuff, a lot provenanced from around this area. If it isn’t local, it will be natives that will grow well in the area.

A passionate lover of native plants for over 40 years, there’s a rumor that if you watch the ABC Gardening Australia show in late August you just may see Sophie Thomson visiting Gill’s garden. Just a rumor mind.

And of course Gill is married to the very important John, on the Membership Information stand. Some time harp player to the busker, supplier of the back up music, as well as maintaining the Membership database, taking Membership fees and issuing cards, generally very important person for members, stallholders and the general public to have to come to!
