Presenter – Peter Manifis

Looking to get to know your local growers? Peter heads to the Hills to WA’s best farmers market: the Kalamunda Farmers Market

• On every Sunday (8-12), local growers bring their freshest and ripest crop to the Kalamunda Markets, where you can browse or buy.
• These markets really showcase how you can connect local growers directly to the customer: you! Always ensuring your produce is farm fresh, retaining more of its nutritional value, being so close to harvest.
• Head to the markets and chat to Jeff, a local organic fruit grower, who will give you a sneak peek at some of his freshest picked apples.
• Chat to local growers such as Helen of Helen’s Hellish and hear all about her homemade pickles and jams using seasonal fruit and vegetables
• Morris, an avocado grower can share with you about the myths of the prices of avocados and how by going straight to the grower, you can save!
• Head out to the hills on Sunday and support local by getting all your fresh produce!
