Third Sunday Every Month
Talbot Farmers’ Market began in 2004 as one of the earliest farmers’ markets in regional Victoria, supporting local and regional farmers, growers and artisan food producers. It remains proudly community-based and continues to draw thousands of visitors to Talbot each month. The beautiful historic precinct of Scandinavian Crescent and Camp Street comes to life on the third Sunday of every month with stallholders lining the streets offering local produce and gourmet delights. Visit Talbot on a market weekend and explore what the Goldfields region has to offer. Local and Pyrenees wineries, gold history, galleries, award-winning restaurants, cafes, country pubs, walks, fishing and boating and much more. Talbot is part of a broader region that hosts many innovative artisan producers and small-scale farmers. The Talbot Farmers’ Market Committee are dedicated to showcasing this region's unique local produce while sharing our heritage tiny town for visitors and locals to enjoy. If you are a small-scale farmer or artisan producer who produces or grows local food, we want to hear from you. Please view our Stallholder Application to register your interest.

Talbot Farmers’ Market - Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I park there? Ample parking is available in the streets surrounding the market.
- Is there any disabled parking available? There is a disabled drop off point on the corner of Heales Street and Scandinavian Crescent, which provides close access to both markets. We are currently researching dedicated sites for parking on market days and will update this section when these are confirmed.
- Do I need to bring cash? If you need it, you can access cash out at Talbot Post Office in Camp Street – open from 8am – 1pm each market day.
- Where are the toilets? Pioneer Park off Scandinavian Crescent (opposite the swimming pool) and the RSL Park off Heales Street, rear of London House and Community Centre.
- Should I bring my own bags? The Talbot Farmers’ Market prides itself on minimal waste and recycling. We encourage our stallholders to supply biodegradable or recyclable packaging and food containers. Both waste and recycling bins are positioned at numerous locations around the market.
- Can I bring my dog? Dogs are welcome at the market, but we ask that you keep them on a short leash at all times, and supervise them carefully – especially in food areas – to ensure they do not interfere with stallholders, other visitors (especially children), or assistance animals. Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their dogs and disposing of any dog waste appropriately; please bring your own bags, or obtain them from our purple TFM marquee. IMPORTANT: Markets can be busy and stimulating environments, and some dogs may find the crowds, noise, and unfamiliar surroundings overwhelming; please consider your dog’s temperament and comfort before bringing them along. Also be mindful of bringing them on days of extreme weather.
-
What are donations and raffle monies are used for? Every dollar raised through the market is reinvested to support its ongoing operations. This includes updating equipment (marquees for information and entertainment), required maintenance (such as cleaning toilets), contractor fees (market day and marketing and publicity coordinators), use of water and electricity by stall holders, new signage, power connections, market insurance, and emergency and safety equipment.
- What if I have a question on the day? Further information from one of our friendly volunteers is always available at the information and raffle marquee located in front of London House Cafe.
- I have feedback to share - how can I pass this on? Please download and fill in a complaint form and return it to the TFM Committee by email to talbotfarmersmarket@outlook.com
