Carriageworks Farmers’ Market — Attraction in Sydney

The 10mins walk from Redfern Station to Carriageworks Farmers Market is a delightful experience in itself. As you meander through the neighborhood, you’ll pass charming terraces and leafy streets that exude a welcoming vibe.

Carriageworks Farmers Market may not be the biggest, but it’s packed with quality produce and a lively, welcoming atmosphere. This isn’t a place for surprises. It’s a well-loved Saturday ritual for those who appreciate fresh, locally sourced ingredients.

From vibrant flowers and crisp vegetables to gourmet mushrooms, honey, handcrafted sauces, freshly baked bread, delicate tarts, hearty pies and premium meats,, the selection is thoughtfully curated. The market’s charm lies in its freshness and the passion of the vendors. A personal highlight? The cinnamon bagel chips is lightly sweet and crunchy and the fresh figs, bursting with natural flavor, and of course, a great cup of coffee to complete the experience.

If you love market vibes and top-quality ingredients, this spot is well worth a visit. It’s a great way to kickstart your weekend with a little shopping and a lot...

Even during covid lockdown, the regulars are still flocking to this popular farmer's market on Saturday morning. With partner, families and their dogs. Hardly any social distancing, but people are wearing masks and QR checkin enforced to certain degree. I see this as how it will keep going as we live with Covid.

Besides that, what I always love about this place are the two florist on each end of the market. Amazing display of seasonal flowers with native plants. Then there are the vegetables stall. Conventional and organic farmers. People are always queueing up for them. I particularly like the Japanese man selling Miso, the people selling lots of different mushrooms, and there was a stall that sells food vegetables plants you can take home to plant and grow your own food.

I like it more now that there are less people coming, as I can finally have less of an issue...

$7.50 for a small latte is way too much… so a lesson.

If you’ve got a rich daddy or you’ve got a trust fund, you’re good to go here. Because it’s a market for two types of people: the seriously FOMO’ed and gullible, or those with very deep pockets. Some examples: $18 dollars for a carton of eggs, $9.50 for a croissant, and the list goes on…

For the past few years, Sydneysiders have complained about and lamented the ever rising cost of living, and the disintegration of their quality of life as result. Well, should you ever want a respite from hearing about the cost of living crisis, this is the place to come. You’ll see people loading their gigantic Range Rovers and E-cars with their haul of organic produce — after scoffing coffee that cost a day’s allowance for some — without need to advert to bank balances.

A market for the super trendy insane or the...
