Criterion Street art
There’s nothing better than a lazy Sunday morning in Tasmania. And stumbling across a vibrant farmer’s market in the heart of Hobart city is, quite simply, a treat for the senses.
While I was checking out some street art, EB wandered off (as he does) and discovered the Farm Gate Market in Bathurst Street. What a find!
The markets opened five years ago with just 12 stallholders – and the simple philosophy that ‘if you can’t eat it, drink it, grow it or meet the producer, then you wouldn’t find it at the market‘.
Now it’s one of the top ten Farmer’s Markets in Australia and it’s easy to see why. If you love fresh produce and delicious treats plus a little local flavour, this is the place to be.
We’ll be living in Hobart next year (if all goes to plan), so there’s no prizes for guessing where you’ll find us on a Sunday morning.
Here’s just some of the deliciousness…

Magic mushrooms…

Lovin’ the horse float!

Bury me standing? Yes please

Who knew all that about garlic?

All this fabulous freshness feels like France

And down the road, you’ve gotta love the winter streets of Hobart
