The Best Markets in Templestowe and Surrounds
Markets in Templestowe and surrounds.
There is nothing I enjoy more than spending my weekend wandering through a gorgeous, local Farmers Market before heading home with a basket full of produce to cook for myself and my family.
Shopping at a Farmers’ Market inspires creativity don’t you think? If you find an authentic local market then you have found the local growers, makers, bakers and creators in your community.
Well I have made it my mission to research, visit and discover as many of the best markets in Templestowe and beyond.
Templestowe is a little gem of a Suburb to live in, with great proximity to the City, its own river frontage, interesting architecture, extensive and sprawling parklands, great shopping and easy access to The Artisan Hills and stunning surrounding Countryside
I have compiled a list of local markets in Templestowe and beyond that I love. Please feel free to let me know if I have missed something good.
Here they are in no particular order.

The Warrandyte Riverside Market is a popular outdoor market located along the banks of the Yarra River in Warrandyte. It features a wide variety of stalls selling fresh food, plants, wares from local makers and creators, coffee, flowers and plenty of cute puppies out walking. The market also has live entertainment and a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. It is held on the first Saturday of the month and attracts visitors from the surrounding areas who come to enjoy the scenic location, browse the stalls and enjoy a day out.
This is a great market and it always has a huge range of stalls, even in the heat or rain. This is one of my favourite markets in the area and I visit every month that I am home and free. You will love it too.
