The Kalamunda Farmers Market is in the finals stages of planning for it’s annual Spring Food and Wine Festival with the event set to take place on 11 September 2011 from 8am till 1pm.

Kalamunda Chamber of Commerce President Robert Bentley said, “The Festival is a celebration of the the start of Spring and the flow of fresh spring produce. Entry is free and will have a large assortment of fresh produce available, a programme of top quality live entertainment, a showcase of local wine, free samples and free children's activities all within the friendly village atmosphere of the market.”

Creating a community focal point is part of the philosophy of the Kalamunda Farmers

“We want to provide the freshest produce in a fun and festive shopping environment for the community,” said Chamber of Commerce President Robert Bentley.

Farmers markets have continued to gain in popularity because consumers are realising that fresh locally grown food tastes better, and lasts longer, best of all buying local produce helps our own local economy and local farmers. In addition, as food does not have to travel so far to reach consumers, it is also reducing environmental impact. With the farmers market, local farmers can once again become viable and consumers have access to fresh, healthy foods.

The Kalamunda Farmers Market enables shoppers to buy direct from the farmer, grower or producer in the Perth hills. The Market operates every Sunday morning in the Central Mall, Kalamunda from 8am.The Spring Food and Wine Festival is held in the usual market location.
