The Boroondara Farmers Market celebrated its 20th Anniversary on Saturday March 18th with a bumper market, special attractions and distinguished guests as residents thronged to Patterson Reserve for this very special occasion. Family attractions included face painting, a magician extraordinaire, a balloonologist (you had to be there), the most amazing magician, hoola hoops, a man on stilts blowing bubbles - the fun never stopped. The turnstiles never stopped turning as crowds poured in, which included the Member for Hawthorn, John Pesutto, and the Mayor of Boroondara, Cr Felicity Sinfield.
On a windy but warm day, stallholders did a brisk trade as families stocked up on fresh produce. Cr. Sinfield gave a brief address at an after-market bbq, thanking those who established the Market and have ensured its continued success over the past 20 years. The market is in good hands and the many new faces seen at Patterson Reserve last Saturday augers well for the next twenty years. Congratulations to the Boroondara Farmers Market, the City of Boroondara, the Rotary Club of Glenferrie and our wonderful farmers. It was an absolutely splendid day!
