Introducing the Launceston Farmers' Market: A Fresh Approach to Local Prosperity

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Launceston Farmers' Market, a new initiative by the Launceston Chamber of Commerce aimed at celebrating and supporting our local agricultural community. Our vision is to create a vibrant, sustainable marketplace where local farmers, food producers, and artisans can connect directly with consumers to share and sell their produce and crafts.

Why a Farmers' Market?

The idea for the Launceston Farmers' Market emerged from a desire to boost local economic activity while promoting sustainability. Markets are a proven way to help local businesses thrive, reduce environmental impacts, and provide community members with access to fresh, locally sourced products. By fostering closer connections between producers and consumers, the market aims to enhance community spirit and support the local economy.

Our Vision

Our vision for the Launceston Farmers' Market is to establish a weekly event that becomes a staple in the community calendar. We see it as a place where families can spend their mornings picking up the freshest local produce, where foodies can discover new local flavours, and where everyone can learn more about the benefits of eating locally and seasonally from the very people who grow and make the food.

Participate in the Farmers' Market

We're calling on all local farmers and food producers who are interested in participating. Whether you're looking to expand your customer base, reach new markets, or simply become more involved in the local community, the Launceston Farmers' Market offers a fantastic opportunity.

If you're interested in participating or want more information, please don't hesitate to get in touch. You can contact Ellie Phillott, directly at secretary@launcestionchamber.com. We’re also looking for volunteers and partners who want to help make this vision a reality.

Together, we can make the Launceston Farmers' Market a key component of our local ecosystem, supporting not just our local economy but also the well-being of our entire community. We look forward to seeing you there and to growing together.
