Held on the first Saturday of each month and kicking off on 5 February, the popular market will house returning stallholders selling locally grown and handmade food, art, eco-friendly products and feature live entertainment.<\/p>\n
Each event is located at the Bannockburn Heart, on the corner of Milton and High Streets from 8.30am to 12.30pm.<\/p>\n
Last year\u2019s market scheduling was heavily interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, including a three-month hiatus between the July and October events.<\/p>\n
However, the program finished off strong with a record 75-plus stallholder turnout to their final market of last year, the annual twilight market.<\/p>\n
This year\u2019s evening edition event is scheduled for 15 December, and the Golden Plains Shire stated each market will feature COVID safe measures like QR code check ins.<\/p>\n
The much-loved market won the tourism and hospitality award at the 2017 Geelong Business Excellence Awards, with a variety of offerings to browse from businesses both local and outside the region.<\/p>\n
Past stallholders include Moorabool Valley Wildflowers, Simply Fi Handbags, ShortHive Honey, Leighgrove Olives and Wes Eggs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
