11.01.2022 COVID-19: Community update Due to the updated Government regulations regarding indoor activities and in a bid to keep our community safe, The Forcett Community Hall is ceasing to host all activities within the hall and grounds from Tuesday 24th March 2020. We have had a busy year so far and we acknowledge the inconvenience this may cause, but we really appreciate the community's understanding.... The committee look forward to the time when we can all join together again and celebrate our wonderful community.

08.01.2022 They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

05.01.2022 Bream Creek Farmers Market update It has been an incredible few days of escalating preventative measures while Australia grapples with strategies to slow the pr...ogression of coronavirus. We have a few thoughts for our stallholders and patrons as we head toward our next market on Sunday, April 5th. Firstly, our cows, goats, sheep and alpacas will still be milked, shorn and processed by our local farmers. Our lettuces, flowers, grapes and apples will be harvested and processed and our breads, pastries, curry spices, jams and preserves will continue to be made with local ingredients by our local chefs, bakers and cooks. Our coffee will be made with the same essential caffeine and our food stalls will prepare wonderful food inspired by recipes from all over the world. Our stallholders will need and deserve our patronage, and we will need these products, perhaps even more than we have needed them in ordinary circumstances. At this stage, what Bream Creek Farmers Market proposes to do is this. * Keep going every month, on the first Sunday of every month; * Spread our stallholders out over a larger area of the Showgrounds in order to manage recommended personal spaces of 1.5 metres effectively. We may need to walk further with our coffee to purchase our pastry, but it will be worth it!; * Ensure that all of our food stalls have hand sanitisers and sneeze guards and comply with maximum standards of Food Handling Regulations enforced by our local council; * We will not be putting out beanbags, but would love it if you can stash your picnic chairs and picnic rugs and set up camp to listen to our musicians; * Support our local farmers and growers during what looks like being an incredibly tough time for everyone; In peak period circumstances, BCFM has around 400+ patrons attending, spread over a time frame of 9 am to 1pm. We have plenty of space and plenty of fresh air to accomodate this current level of patronage. There conceivably could be reduced numbers attending upcoming markets, but potentially there could be more. It will be very unlikely that the Australian Government’s recently announced advice of reconsidering gatherings in excess of 500 people will affect BCFM. However if we have unprecedented attendees, the Bream Creek Showgrounds will be perfectly equipped to handle extra numbers. Bream Creek Farmers Market has always provided a beautiful venue where locals and visitors alike can access wonderful regionally produced foods and wines, meet inspiring producers of our foods, enjoy talented local artists perform and connect in a vibrant, supportive, inclusive community. This will be our ongoing aim. If you are aware of local businesses or producers doing it tough due to cancellations of major stallholders operations, please let them know that Bream Creek Farmers Market, and small regional markets like ours will be endeavouring to function throughout this stage of the crisis. If they need an avenue to continue to sell, please put them in touch with us. Finally, thank goodness for regional communities like ours. Please keep joining us, and we will continue to update as circumstances require. Best wishes All at Bream Creek Farmers Market

01.01.2022 Whilst we would LOVE to be able to open up to large numbers again, the May 1st lift on restrictions only applies to seated venues. The hall is still available for meetings, gatherings etc of smaller numbers. From 1st May, Forcett Community Hall is required to provide and ensure the use of the 'Covid 19 sign in app'. You'll find the QR Code inside the hall.... Please remember we are not setting the rules, we are following the directions of the Government to ensure our community stays safe. As volunteers, the leasing of the hall is organised in our 'spare' time.
