After a short break for Christmas and New Year, the Carseldine Farmers & Artisan Markets, located at 532 Beams Rd is back every Saturday beginning on the 13th of January. This country-style market, which is situated in a transformed old Qut Carseldine Campus just five minutes away from Aspley Hypermarket, is once again ready to welcome its patrons, as well as new stallholders and event performers every Saturdays.
At the heart of the Carseldine Farmers & Artisan Markets are local produce from makers, growers, farmers, painters, cooks, chefs, designers, bakers, fishmongers, butchers, baristas and juicers around Queensland.
The market offers something for everyone, including kids and fur babies. Traditional and gourmet food are made on site. Some previous stall owners have been Bagel Boys, Goat Pie Guy, Popcorn Man, and Nom Nom. Food offerings vary from French crepes and German pastries, Vietnamese and Filipino cuisines among others. Children can play on the jumping castle and be entertained with face painting. Dogs can choose from delicious treats and there are even amusing clothes for them available in specialty stalls.
Artistic skills and creative hobbies are also being demonstrated right before people’s eyes at the Carseldine Farmers & Artisan Markets. There are beautifully crafted herb boxes, amazing flower arrangements, hand-made jewellery, recycled furniture, and other vintage art and crafts.
