We're a gardening family with local roots
It all began with a fruit and vegetable plot at Scotsburn near Ballarat in 1856. Five generations of local gardeners and farmers later, and we’re still here serving you in Victoria’s Garden City!
Plants, seeds, and garden tools are available at our local Saturday markets (see below for the next market dates). Open from 9.00 a.m. to 1.00 p.m, the Hollyhock Hill stand showcases a range of heirloom and open-pollinated flower, vegetable, and herb seeds, as well as potted perennials and top-quality gardening tools. In winter we stock tulips and daffodil bulbs, and in spring a wide range of tomato varieties and other vegetable plants are potted and ready for you to put in the ground.
The Ballarat Farmers’ Market is in Zoo Drive, off Wendouree Parade, at the North Gardens Reserve. They have hot coffee, food vans, local fruit and vegetables, baked goods, sweets, desserts, jam, beverages, vinegar, olive oil, meat, cheese, spices, grain, eggs, honey, and loads of specialty stalls selling homewares, country crafts, jewellery, local art, clothing, plants, seeds, bulbs, and lots more!
The Creswick Market is a much-loved monthly event, with the true relaxed feel of a regional community market. Located in the picturesque and historic township of Creswick, just 20 minutes from either Ballarat or Daylesford. With live music and specialist boutique sites offering gourmet take away food, coffee, handmade arts and crafts, jewellery, clothes, home grown fruit, vegetables, plants and other produce.
