What began as a school initiative to raise money for the local school committee has now grown into one of Perth’s most popular farmers’ markets. Located in Kyilla Primary School in the suburb of North Perth, you’ll find young families filling their tote bags with fresh produce sourced directly from growers, and fish from the local fishmonger, Red Gill Fish.

Ask the volunteers where to pick up one of their famous bacon and egg wraps, packed with farm-fresh produce and their signature home-made picante sauce on your way out.

The Sunday market at Midland opened in the early 1980s and is Perth’s second-oldest farmers’ market.

Located in the non-profit community centre and epic barn, Perth City Farm, these markets run weekly every Saturday. The market overflows with local foods and home-made baked goods.

Shady trees and green grass abound this farmers market, making it the perfect place to bring along your kids and your pooch.

With potted plants and flowers available to purchase, you’ll have a fun-filled family day out at the market.

If your vegetables are looking a little tired, and you need some fresh produce, head to Growers’ Green Farmers’ Market.

Another of Perth’s oldest farmers markets, the Subi Farmers’ Market offers an array of fresh and organic produce, as well as meat, fish and baked goods.
