25.01.2022 INTRODUCING Yamba Farmers and Producers Market new sister market Grafton Twilight Farmers Market (yes we are related and we do get on) The Wednesday Yamba Farmers & Producers Market is definitely for those early risers who like to swim and walk, chat and talk, relax and shop at sunrise. We are a pretty happy crew at that hour of the morning. It's you and us 40 stalls holders, the birds and dolphins hanging in the breeze with picture post card views to die for!... On the other hand for those who like to sleep in, roll over and pull the blankets up and go back to sleep (we wish), and love a bit of history and in particular this time of year because of the colour purple, the Grafton Twilight Farmers Market is the one of for you. Nestled in the historic Grafton CBD in Market Square (thanks Mr Darke you were spot in in 1848) under the famous Jacaranda trees. You get to see the real stunning beauty of Grafton come alive at this time a day. HEADS UP the Jacas are at their best this week so don't put off coming for a visit to see the street lined purple magic and enjoy a stroll around our farmers market on Thursday. BTW this is Brooke one of our stall holders who is a creative artist who makes handmade soap, bovine art, dried flower arrangements. We have 30 stalls of fresh produce and gourmet house made food. Yamba Farmers & Producers Market Wednesday's 7am-11am Grafton Twilight Farmers Market Thursday's 3.30pm - 7.30 pm.

The top photo we have house made cabana using a secret family Italian recipe (available from Esperenza Farm stall) and then we have house made lamb sausage rolls (available from the Local Dorpa Lamb stall).

11.01.2022 GREAT NEWS PEOPLE: we will be on site at our normal location tomorrow for our Wednesday market. There will be some changes and it will be like a treasure hunt for some of your favourite stall holders. Unfortunately some stall holders are flooded in and can not get out. We have had to relocate some stall holders due to power cord concerns and this is a safety and risk management contingency plan as we do expect some little showers to float on by. Thank you for your patience and we look forward to seeing you all tomorrow in our beautiful location.

11.01.2022 HOW CAN YOU TRUST or know the Yamba Farmers and Producers Market is doing the right thing for you and the health of your family? We have very, very strict rules if you want to be a stall holder at our weekly Wednesday market. We are governed by a set of 'Farmers Market Rules' from the Clarence Valley Council which are reviewed every four years.... Our market also has a set of internal rules which are scrutinised by stallholders and community annually. We care about our reputation and want you to know all our stall holders are of a high standard and compliant with all our rules. What do we do to ensure these high standards are met: - we do farm inspections - kitchens are registered with Council - stallholders have their safe food handling certificates - correct labelling - fresh produce is gate to plate - produce is grown within the 150 klm locavore footprint - value adders are not resellers Today, Bob and I visited Adrian's farm in South Lismore. So excited to see all his produce doing so well and his strawberries are next level. We love seeing the young farmers at our market and we hope other young people are inspired to take up farming. Its a tough gig and feeding the nation rests on their shoulders which is why when you shop with us you are face to face with the crew who are growing your food and can ask questions. See you all on Wednesday from 7am.

09.01.2022 WE KNOW YOU LOVE OUR FOOD because you keep coming back each week and we are very grateful you do. So we thought we might give you a little information about who exactly are the people who grow, make and bake your food for you each week. What drives each of our stall holders to get up each day and get their hands in the soil, wrap their legs around a horse to go mustering, or stand in a hot kitchen to watch over jam that is cooking.... What inspired them to be at our farmers market and what keeps them there. Don't worry you won't miss out because we will also be asking you our customers about what do you love and why is it important we build community connection at our weekly farmers and producers market. See you this Wednesday from 7am at our usual spot.

04.01.2022 COLLABORATION & RESILIENCE: Here is one of our local Clarence Valley sensational food stories. Liam Dundon has pivoted his construction career to now being an e...merging food entrepreneur with his amazing new local beef jerky. Hand crafted in the town that was voted 'Best Town in Australia' 10 years ago, Yamba is where this foodie calls home. Using only the best premium Clarence Valley beef sourced from the foothills of the great Gondwana Escarpment up in the Clarence high country, this grass fed beef comes from the award winning 5th generation farmer, Geoff Jones. Liam has an online shop and recently launched his unique beef jerky at the Yamba Farmers and Producers Market. Trading under Dundon's Jerkey Co you can order on line or meet these legends in person at the weekly farmers market in Yamba. . . . . . If you know anyone else who has done a 360 and landed in the agri-food sector in the Clarence Valley can you let me know and I can do a story on them to. See more
