Whitehorse Farmers Market Success

Posted by J. Paripovich | Posted in Newsticker | Posted on 29-05-2010

Whitehorse Farmers’ Market has again recorded fantastic support from its local community. Club thanks go to Mick Willis, Jeremy Desmier, Nigel Cooper, Ern Hermeler, and Jenny and Roger Coburn for their contribution to this great fundraiser for our club.

The year 2009/2010 saw the Market celebrate its third birthday in November with the continued steady patronage from the local Whitehorse community.

With a regular group of Vendors at the Market, the year has been one of stabilisation with several other Farmers Markets starting up around the suburbs, which have impacted on both the customers coming to the market and also on the availability of some vendors.

It has been tremendous to hear the positive feedback from many of our vendors including our “Honey Suppliers” from Mildura who come back every month.  Located in a great spot at the junction at the top of the market, the reliability of sales and the friendliness of the Whitehorse Farmers Market make it worthwhile to continue to make the trek to Melbourne.

The honey is superb, with wonderful flavours.  Why not try it at the next Whitehorse Farmers Market?

The clubs thanks go to Mick Willis (Market Manager); Jeremy Desmier, Nigel Cooper & Ern Hermeler (Set up), Jenny Coburn (Marketing) and Roger Coburn (Club Representative on Management Committee) for their continued contribution to the Farmers Market – a wonderful “fundraiser” for our club.
