A popular farmers market south of the river is moving locations after six years at the busy spot, but luckily for regulars, they won’t have to go too far.
After six years at George Burnett Park, The Farmers Market on Manning is packing up stalls and moving about 3km down the road to Hedley Park.
From October 5, visitors will be welcomed at the new location which offers increased space for more stalls, additional parking and room for the community to gather.
Despite the move, the popular farmers market will keep its name, with City of South Perth Mayor Greg Milner saying the relocation reflects the market’s growth.
“The new site offers greater space, ensuring these community markets will continue to thrive and grow for many years to come,” Mr Milner said.
“Our community has greatly benefited from having The Farmers Market on Manning at the George Burnett Park for many years.
“My family and I look forward to continuing our visits to these wonderful markets at their new location down the road at Hedley Park.”

David Vincent, owner of The Farmers Market on Manning, expressed his gratitude to the City for a partnership that has spanned nearly 15 years.
Mr Vincent said the successful weekly event attracts more than 3500 visitors each Saturday and is possible thanks to a great partnership with the council.
“Our partnership with the City of South Perth has been instrumental in the success of The Farmers Market on Manning,” he said.
“The move to Hedley Park opens up new opportunities for growth and improvement, and we’re excited about the increased space, which will allow us to serve our community better and continue to provide a vibrant market experience.”
