Every Saturday morning in the heart of the Tamar Valley, Harvest Launceston Community Farmers’ Market brightens a quiet inner city car park and brings the farm gate to you. Meet the farmers, connect with locals and feast your eyes on baskets brimming with Tasmania’s freshest seasonal produce, meat free from artificial hormones, organic dairy, kombucha, avocados, truffles, artisan bread and pastries, bright summer berries or blushing autumn apples. Savour a locally roasted coffee and taste your way around our foodie State at this vibrant weekly event before collecting a myriad of premium produce, cool-climate wines, artisan ciders, locally crafted beers and home-made preserves for the journey home.
Staffed, almost entirely by local volunteers, our team set-up and pack-down market marquees, seating areas and signage, they welcome visitors at the market entrance and represent Harvest at the market’s information stall
Who are our Harvest volunteers?
School teachers, accountants, students, graphic designers, vineyard owners, parents, dog-lovers, foodies – you name it!
Most of the delicious products from Harvest Launceston can be taken home with you. The Australian Quarantine website has full details on what can be taken out of Tasmania and in to other states.
There are many outstanding destinations in the surrounding area, start your day #theharvestway then head out around the state to explore.
Sip on a coffee and plan your journey around Tasmania. We live in a rural area so some destinations may not have stops for lunch, fuel and supplies. Stock up at Harvest Launceston and let the adventure begin…
