About the Market
Katherine Community Market is based on the “Farmers’ Market” model which is very popular in many rural and regional areas around Australia. Simply put, the market will enable you to buy directly from producers, many of whom are being squeezed by the unsustainable demands of large retailers and the unrelenting threat of imports.
Whether you are a local resident or a visitor, we are hoping you will take time out to visit our market and break from your normal shopping routine to try something different.
Use the Katherine Community Market chat across the stall table with the very people who have toiled to make the product, we think you’ll be astounded by how much more you can learn about your food and interesting ways to prepare and cook it when you have a chance to talk with professional producers.
As a further stimulus for the local community, the Katherine Region Food Processing Group will be making its commercially-approved kitchen facilities available to local individuals and small local enterprises to make their own products. Anything from a crate to a truck load is feasible, contact us today.
