Overview

I think all Brisbane foodies should say a big hooray for Jan Power and her farmer’s markets. When she began the fresh food markets outside the Brisbane Powerhouse all those years ago she definitely changed the face of the Brisbane food scene for the better - instead of having to traverse all over Brisbane to find the best fruit and vegetables, quality cakes, baked goods, delicious cuts of meat, fresh bread, gorgeous flowers and more, Jan put all of this in the one place and the crowds came in droves.

In 2010 she added a new dimension to her market empire and brought the farm to the CBD, with farmer’s markets each Wednesday from 9am til 6pm at Reddacliff Place in the city.

This wonderful idea brought fresh food to the busy office folk of Brisbane, allowing them to have a delicious, special lunch on a Wednesday, stroll through the markets for a nice little break, and get their food shopping sorted for the week!

Jan and the farmers had a rest over the Christmas/New Year period, but are returning next week with gusto. Once again bringing quality, delicious and diverse food to the masses of Brisbane each Wednesday in the city.
