Murrumbateman Village Market

Held under the oak trees at the Murrumbateman Recreation Grounds, the Murrumbateman Village Market is a genuine grassroots gathering organised and run entirely by local volunteers as a sub-group of the Murrumbateman Community Association. Twice a month on the 2nd and 4th Saturday, locals and visitors find an open-air mix of fresh regional produce, handmade crafts, artisan goods, local wines, gins and beer, live music, and family entertainment - all set against the relaxed rural backdrop of the Yass Valley. Part of stall fees go directly to support the Murrumbateman Scouts Group, and a Community Stall provides an outlet for backyard growers and hobby farmers to sell surplus produce. The market aims to be more than a shopping trip: it's a regular meeting place where you get to know the faces behind the food.
