On the third Sunday of every month, the tiny town of Talbot becomes a vibrant marketplace attracting hundreds of people.

Wander the beautiful heritage streetscape bustling with market stalls and taste the Central Goldfields region.

Explore an array of regional produce stalls, offering seasonal fruit and organic vegetables, fresh bread and baked goods, local wines, gins and craft beers, gourmet oils, olives, nuts and so many more artisan food products.

In true country farmers’ market style, you will also find chooks, stockfeed, cut flowers, plants and seedlings.

Talbot Farmers Market provides visitors with an authentic farmers’ market experience with a warming and welcoming community spirit.

Sample fabulous food and wine, enjoy a coffee and a tasty bite to eat while listening to local artists playing live music in the street.

Pick up a ticket for your chance to win the monthly ‘Barrow Raffle’ overflowing with wonderful produce kindly donated by stall holders.

Talbot Farmers Market is dog friendly so please feel welcome to bring your pooches that must be on short leashes.

They sometimes experience internet issues so it is best to bring cash. The Talbot Post Office offers a cashout service on market days between 8am – 1 pm.

Talbot is located 40 minutes north of Ballarat or 90 minutes from Melbourne’s Westgate Bridge. For public transport options please visit the PTV website.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities.

These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years.

As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
