Strath Creek Country Market

Tucked into the beautiful Pioneer Reserve, the Strath Creek Country Market is a beloved monthly gathering for this small rural community 104 km north of Melbourne in the Murrindindi Shire. The market lives by a simple ethos - make it, bake it, grow it - bringing together local makers, bakers and growers in a relaxed country setting. Whether you're a local stocking up the pantry or a day-tripper looking for a genuine escape, the atmosphere is warm, unhurried and full of the kind of finds you won't come across at a suburban shopping centre. Live music sets the tone while kids enjoy the playground and face painting. Hot food and coffee keep everyone fuelled, and there's plenty of shade and open space to settle in and stay a while.
