Pop-up Good Food Market stall
Bendigo Foodshare believes in good food for all.
Through our Pop-up Good Food Market stall, we are strengthening community food systems by making healthy, local, regeneratively grown food financially accessible to more people in our community and paying local farmers a fair price for their produce. We sell organic, seasonal produce grown at our Golden Gums Farm market garden, as well as from other local suppliers. We aim to make our produce affordable, accessible and culturally appropriate. Our customers include everyone – from full paying customers to low-income families and individuals; from long-term Bendigo locals to newly arrived refugees and migrants.
To stay up to date with our Good Food Markets, keep an eye on our social media where we share weekly produce availability.

Second Saturday of the month, 9am-12.30pm at Bendigo Community Farmers Market

Bendigo Community Farmers Market
The Bendigo Community Farmers Market is now in it’s 15th year of operation. The market offers high quality, freshly harvested produce, in season, in a traditional, market square atmosphere. It also means that you are directly supporting the farmers of the Bendigo region, and thus contributing to the local community.
You can find our Grow Cook Share Food Hub team at the monthly market, selling produce grown in our food cube veggie boxes and at our Golden Gums Farm – just look out for our Bendigo Foodshare Marquee.
And if you are after a good ol’ fashioned sausage sizzle, look out for our fundraising BBQ stall also at the market. Grab a traditional sausage in bread or indulge in something a little more gourmet. It is a delicious way to support our work.
Day:Â Second Saturday of Each Month
Time: 9am-12:30pm
Place:Â Bendigo Foodshare, 227 Breen Street, Golden Square.
