About this market
Essendon North Craft Market is an old-school community craft market that has been a local fixture on Mount Alexander Road for more than four decades. Stalls lean handmade and homespun, with cards, folk art, delicate ribbon embroidery and children's clothing alongside tables of home-grown plants, fruit and vegetables. An undercover food stall keeps things sweet with cakes, biscuits and old-fashioned preserves. In the lead-up to Christmas the market steps up to every Saturday, making it a relaxed spot to pick up handmade gifts, and it is an easy tram ride from the city for a family outing.
