birregurra sunday market

expecting a country market with a mixture of craft, produce and food, it was mainly craft, some produce and no food.

If you've heard of the quaint little town of 'Birre' and fancy visiting it but can't afford its fine dining restaurants and B and B accommodation and upmarket providores, here's a budget-friendly possibility. If you visit on the second Sunday of the month during the warmer months (November to April) you should find Birregurra's market in operation between 10 am and 2pm. It's held in the park toward one end of the main shopping street. Stallholders sell fruit and vegetables and other produce, as well as plants, arts and crafts, second-hand wares, etcetera. There are also some food and drink sellers and a BBQ. Children should find a few things to interest them, and dogs on leashes are part of the scene. I discovered the market when visiting Birregurra one Easter Sunday. A number of local artists' studios were open over the same weekend, and most of the small businesses on the main street were welcoming the tourist trade.
