Hornsby Secondhand Market
This is your chance to help boost the local reuse economy while nabbing a pre-loved bargain (or three).
Overview
Feeling thrifty? Head along to Hornsby Second Hand Market when it returns on Sunday, April 13. This is your chance to help boost the local reuse economy while nabbing a pre-loved bargain (or three).
As you'd expect, stallholders have jumped at the opportunity – and all 30 stalls are already booked out. For you, dear shopper, that means a cornucopia of unique objects, from jewellery and fashion to books and homewares.
The market is just one part of Hornsby Shire Council's Waste Matters Strategy, which includes Bicycle Repair and Clothes Swap events. Mayor Warren Waddell is all about getting locals and visitors together to keep quality, second-hand things out of the trash and in the community's hands, thereby minimising the garbage that is taking up too much of our planet already.
"Events like this inspire a shift in how we approach consumption," said Mayor Waddell. "The markets are a fantastic opportunity for the community to support sustainable living and take home some bargains." Hornsby Second Hand Market will take place on the second Sunday of April, September, and November, from 9am to 1pm in the Coronation StrEat precinct.
