The Market
The Mt Claremont Farmers’ Market is an exciting initiative. Predominantly a fresh produce market operating every Saturday morning at the Mt Claremont Primary School. The market is a school community based project that provides an opportunity for farmers, food producers and chefs to sell farm-origin and associated gourmet food products directly to their customers.
Commencing trade in December 2007 with only eight stalls the Mt Claremont Farmers’ Market has certainly filled a niche market. It is enjoying great success and is growing rapidly with over 45 stalls consistently attracting crowds of over 2000 people. Situated on the corner of Alfred Road and Montgomery Road, the Mt Claremont Primary School is transformed into a thriving metropolis every Saturday. Parking is available for over 350 cars with part proceeds going to charity and local community groups. The market is managed by volunteers from the school community, 100% of the markets net operating proceeds are directed towards enhancing Mt Claremont Primary Schools educational facilities www.mountclare.schooljotter.com
Enjoy at the Market
The air at the markets is always filled with tempting aromas from hot food vendors. Enjoy fresh espresso coffees, fresh French pastries, sausage sizzles and bacon and eggs whilst grabbing your fruit and veggies. There are also fantastic local olive oils and condiments to choose from.
