HOT: Markets in the Garden, Royal Botanical Gardens, Birdwood Avenue, South Yarraf

The Garden Markets is a small market held over summer which is held near the Observatory of the Royal Botanical Gardens. The grassy spot is lovely for a stroll amongst the 100 or so stallholders, none of whom I’d seen before (and I go to a lot of markets). The products ranged from jewellery, fashion, artwork, photography, skincare to plants. To replace my sunburnt plants, I bought some ed chard, silverbeet, chillies and  some purple basil organic seedlings from Marie’s Natural Herbs ‘n’ Stuff. These other stalls caught my eye:

Bright and colourful pinafore dresses from Pinikity.
