FARM GATE MARKET - HOBART
|
Every Sunday, come rain hail or shine, a busy street in the heart of Hobart transforms into a bustling farmers’ market. It’s all about Tasmanian produce and getting to know your farmer, and it always has been. Five years back, the market began with an honest and simple philosophy that if you couldn’t eat it, drink it, grow it or meet the producer, then you wouldn’t find it at the market. That ethos has always held true. And now, the little farmers’ market that began with 12 stallholders has grown into an essential Sunday ritual for locals. It is one of the top five farmers’ markets in the country and won a silver medal at the 2015 Australian tourism awards for excellence In food tourism.
Find out more about Farm Gate Market or visit them at Bathurst Street, Hobart, between Murray and Elizabeth Streets open Sundays 8.30am – 1.00pm. |

STREET EATS @ FRANKO

If it’s not produced in Tasmania, you won’t find it at Street Eats @ Franko! Brought to you by the creators of Hobart’s much-loved Farm Gate Market, this hyperactive street food night market spreads itself across a beautiful inner-city park. There are funky stalls with street food menus starring our island’s rich and abundant offerings. Dishes can be perfectly paired with a Tasmanian craft beer, cider, local spirit or cold-climate wine. Picnic blankets are provided across sprawling lawns, so you can munch and muse to the rhythms of live music by an eclectic mix of musicians who are the cream of the crop.
