every Thursday, organiser Chris Hain said although the mid-week markets didn\u2019t take off initially, people started taking advantage of them once lockdown hit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve been running a monthly market on a Saturday for 10 years, and about two years ago we tried doing a mid-week market to test the community\u2019s appetite for it and it didn\u2019t really cut through,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn March, last year when the first lockdown was ordered, we were scheduled to have a market on the Thursday and we got a call the day before saying our permit had been cancelled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had farmers who had already picked and packed so we didn\u2019t want that food to go to waste or for them to lose income, so we organised with the Good Loaf who have been long-term supporters to set up a small pop up in their car park.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After kicking things off at the new site that Thursday, Mr Hain said it just went from there and quickly the market went from three to 25 stallholders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople felt safer shopping outside rather than in supermarkets and ended up falling in love with buying directly from the producer and maker and supporting local business,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll the stallholders are either from the City of Greater Bendigo or a neighbouring Shire, we only have one regular stallholder that comes from Melbourne.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of the stallholders like that it\u2019s just a short market during the day, they only have to sacrifice half a day off the farm and can be home before dark.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the market currently successful, Mr Hain said it\u2019s great to be able to offer security and safety to so many of their loyal stallholders.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the current offerings, Mr Hain said after 2020, the mid-week market is always seeking to support more.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_74649\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-74649\" style=\"width:
