When the mercury drops, the leaves turn orange and you suddenly develop an urge to eat soup – you know it’s market season.

Why not visit some local stalls and pick out a nice hand knitted scarf, or better yet stockpile a selection of locally made jams and produce to snack on during the colder months.

And no you don’t have to make a long weekend drive to the Barossa or the Adelaide Hills to get your fix – why not enjoy the bespoke little markets in your own backyard!

We have compiled a list of some of our favourite markets to visit in and around Playford.

We are excited to share the newest market in Playford. Imagine enjoying a glass of red, enjoying picturesque views all while exploring local craft and produce… could you think of a better pairing?
