The Riverfront was alive this Saturday and was absolutely buzzing. The Show and Shine featured at Nowingi Place, Shippy’s was alive and pumping with good coffee and food, the Powerhouse featured an igloo with a movie about Mungo Man and then there was our Combined Market. What a great day to be down the Riverfront.

We had some new displays with Anthony’s Rockinghorses on site, carving a new horse. Bailey Copley has here as well with his smith fired up, demonstrating some of the stunning blades he is now creating.

Our farmers had plenty of produce, fresh, crisp and full of flavour straight from their farms.

If ever you need to know how your produce is grown, our farmer is right there, at the stall to answer any of your questions.

Mildura can absolutely turn on spring.

With perfect blue skies, sun shining and our market stocked up it was the best place to be this morning.

Our breakfast boasts fresh farm supplies and is one of the best value feeds in town! The word must have gotten out, as the tables were full with families, friends, couples, singles, all enjoying the bountiful meal and live Blues music with Old Dogs.

Back in season were dutch carrots, which are extremely popular! We could also find blood oranges, kaffir limes, tumeric, mandarins, coloured chard, beetroot and so much more.

What a perfect day was had on, our 2nd September market.

With Spring in the air, the market was awash with the colour of beautiful floral displays, from our expert growers.

We welcomed Mildura Muscle Car Club and what a display it was! Always such a delight to have the members along, who were able to sit, relax and enjoy a fabulous Farmer’s Market breakfast, whilst listening to live music with Blair Bildstein.

For those up early enough, we were graced with a hot air balloon slowly drifting across the market and enjoying some of our river views.

After much anticipation the Mildura Powerhouse Precinct opened it’s doors. It was such a delight to see the flow of people winding their way down from Langtree Avenue, past the newly opened Shippy’s Cafe and Powerhouse, then down to our market.

What a way to celebrate the arrival of Spring!

Our upcoming Market on the 2nd September, includes our fabulous Farmers Market Stallholders, the highly creative and talented artists from Riverfront Boutique Markets and for those that are car buffs, we have the Mildura Muscle Car Club displaying their beautifully restored vehicles.

Spring time is such a glorious time in Mildura. Enjoy our outdoor market, nestled in amongst the river gums in Jaycee park. We will have live music from Blair Bildstein….guaranteed to have many a song you will want to sing and dance along too.

Our breakfast is a great affordable, quality choice. Showcasing the best produce from our farmers at a price that means you can go back for pancakes for dessert!!

It may be winter, but Mildura is the perfect place to enjoy sunshine.

We have all the staples you need for the week, fresh veggies, lemons, oranges, cakes, biscuits, dried fruit and nuts, olive oil, preserves and jams and being here is just the way, to delve into the variety of gourmet treats our creative and talented stallholders have.

Coming home with the ‘goods’ from our market is such a delight, in knowing all the treats you have, will be able to be enjoyed for the next couple of weeks….until they run out, just in time for our next market!!

We have many tempting delights to spoil not only you but family, friends, work colleagues…..it’s all there at our farmer’s market.

Shopping at Biscuits by Tonia, is always guaranteed to provide you with traditional Italian delicacies, but she’s always looking at creating something new.

We were lucky enough to find these monster Nutella delights last market.

But you need to be quick!

Fresh from the farm this week, we had kale, limes, pumpkin, choko, mandarins, avocado, tangelo, buddha hands, lemons, capsicum, rhubarb, persimmon, which is just an idea of the many veggies and fruits that were available.

Our market brimmed with locals and visitors, all enjoying the fabulous sounds of Paul Trevaskis, playing his and our (!) favourite tracks.

The breakfast stall overflowed with fresh veggies, and locally sourced meat, warm pancakes, french toast, fresh muesli cups and locally squeezed orange juice.

What a great way to spend a Saturday.

Our President Warrick Dickson, is well appreciated in our SFM community, for the huge contribution he has made over the many years of his market involvement.

On Friday the 9th June , a ‘bright idea’ was ‘floated’. Let’s do an ice bath in the depths of winter in the hope of raising a few $$ for Brain Cancer.

Never one to shy away from a chance to show his physique and fashion style, Warrick had his hand up faster than an umpire at a footy game, when the call went out for volunteers.

Donning his summer speedos, he made the rounds of the market, gathering contributions from rugged up puffer vested and mittened supporters.

With a crowd of eager watchers, he dived into the icy waters with a style and grace that would have made Ian Thorpe proud.

We are super proud of Warrick who never shies away from a chance to help. Well done Warrick and all of the crew at Alt Locker Mildura. Special thanks to all of those that did reach out to donate.

Our Combined Market. on the June long weekend, is a great drawcard for locals and visitors.

On Saturday we will be combining with Riverfront Boutique Markets – Mildura to provide a showcase of local food and artisan crafts.

Our farmers and producers are busy in the fields and their kitchens, stocking up for what is a traditionally busy market.

We will feature live music from Greg and Julia.

As always the local Lions Club will be cooking up a storm with our Farmer’s brekkie stall.

Treat yourself Saturday June 10, 8am-12pm Jaycee Park Mildura.
