CERES Market at CERES Brunswick

Overview

Melburnians living in the inner north know CERES as a local institution, with this Brunswick East social enterprise pushing for social and environmental change for the past 40 years. Whether you visited with school or on your own time, you've probably taken part in a gardening workshop or educational program that levelled up your green thumb.

Now the organisation is stepping things up with a revamped fortnightly Saturday market, stacked with local creativity, quality vintage goods and handcrafted wares. Running from 9am–2pm, local makers, artisans and designers will take over the parkland on November 8, November 22 and December 6. Plus, there's a special Christmas market planned for December 20, perfect for any last-minute gifting needs.

Tucked in between CERES' thriving green spaces, on-site cafe, bustling nursery and more, visitors can expect a curated mix of stallholders, from handmade ceramics and sustainable fashion to preserves, toys and art. And with the organisers mixing things up for every edition, you'll discover different creative goods every time you swing through.

"This market brings together everything people already love about CERES: community, creativity and care for the Earth," says Sam Hulls, Market Coordinator at CERES. "We're building a space that reflects the community's values while supporting local artists and small producers."
