Home Why a food market? |

People are turning away
from supermarkets, a growing international trend. People want to connect with
those who create and grow the food they want to eat. They are also
concerned about sustainability, and a wish to reduce
their food miles. Here shoppers have developed a rapport with their
favourite stallholders, and are able to discuss a common interest in the food
presented. The Moggill Markets are run by an enthusiastic
committee of volunteers dedicated to bringing to the Western suburbs fresh
quality produce. Brookfield
is an ideal location for a
Farmers Market, it was the original site of a farmers market in which began
modestly in 1897. This venture has grown from
a small beginning, to a very successful market with an extensive range of
food products. Buying straight from the paddock has big advantages, the
vegetables you buy last until the next market and longer. Result? - spend
less time shopping. A quality
Market with prices to suit every budget. You won't find a more sociable scene than the market at Moggill, with families and friends making this
their social outing. Don't take our word for it, come
and see yourself. We
have created a relaxed atmosphere with over a dozen gazebos and chairs so that you can take
time and shop at leisure. Our community
goal: The Moggill Markets started in January 2009 and
as a not for profit organisation the Moggill Market committee uses the funds
generated from the fees to support the community. Monthly donations are made to the
139 Club in Fortitude Valley who collect fresh produce to feed the homeless. OTHER DONATIONS:

interested in setting up a stall on a temporary basis,
there is a catch :-)...You need to book as there is limited space
available. |
