Towri Growers Market is held on the first Saturday of every month showcasing products and fresh produce from the farmers on the farm.
The markets are hosted by Towri Sheep Cheeses farm and is an exciting collective of local Scenic Rim farmers working together to bring you your fresh essentials grown locally.
You can meet the local farmers who grow delicious fresh produce you love! Think dairy, meat, fruit, veg, baked goods and preserves. Save time by purchasing all your fresh produce in one place.
You can buy local and seasonal fruit and vegetables including apples, oranges, limes, lettuce, bok choy, corn, silverbeet, broccoli, potatoes, pumpkin and more.
Throughout the day there are cheese and wine tastings and lawn. You can view a sheep milking demonstration at either 10am or 1pm. Bring a blanket and enjoy a picnic while listening to live music. There are options to buy lunch and have a freshly made coffee or old-fashioned soda.
You can purchase gifts and handmade products from local makers, including candles, ceramics, skincare, woodworking and pickles. I recommend packing a cooler so you can take home some cheese, or dairy products made from Towri Farm Shop. Don’t miss out on grabbing a jar of fresh Towri honey harvested by The Black Bee Apiary.
Dallas Davidson from Towri Sheep Cheeses said, “Our Growers Market initiative has been months in planning as a pivot to offset the challenges we are expecting this year in terms of drought. However, following the Christmas Day tornado on Tamborine Mountain and the recent flooding, it is even more important for people to support the growers and producers of the region.”
“Our producer community is resilient, we’ve lived through fire, floods, drought, Covid, and now a tornado, but we need people from all over South-East Queensland to come and support us, to buy direct from us as growers and producers, to get to know us, to share our stories and become our extended family. We are just an hour from Brisbane and a little more from the Gold Coast, but the trip means the world to us, and we guarantee it’s a better experience than walking up and down the aisle of a major grocery store. We promise a brilliant market, plus lots to do – there’s sheep milking demonstrations, loads of sheep pats, great lawn games, wine tasting and more, and fur babies are welcome!”
Kay Tommerup from the sixth-generation Tommerup Dairy Farm said, ”If there’s one thing that I’ve learnt about farmers and producers in the Scenic Rim, it’s that we always find a way. A way to rebuild, regroup, reinvent, and reimagine. Anything is possible when we work together and support each other. The Towri Growers Market has come from producers supporting each other to create a regular on-farm produce experience, where authenticity and connection to farmers are our focus. On the first Saturday of each month, you’ll find the best of Scenic Rim produce all available in one fabulous place. A collection of our farmer friends will bring their wares – from our family farms to your family table.”
You can park inside the farm gates. The markets are dog friendly but do keep them on a leash.
Cost: Entry is $5pp with children under 3 years free.
