Richmond Good Food Market

Richmond Good Food Market began in 2014, founded by the Hanna and Williams family under the jacaranda trees at Richmond Park. After running it for about five years, they handed the market over to Daniel McTackett, who has continued managing it since, keeping the market's original good-food focus intact through the change in leadership.

From a family-run start-up to one of Western Sydney's biggest single-day markets

That steady growth is most visible each December, when the market's annual Christmas edition swells to more than 190 stalls, making it one of the largest single-day markets anywhere in Western Sydney. On a regular Saturday, the market runs at a more modest scale, but still draws a genuinely strong crowd for fresh produce, artisan food and local crafts under the park's namesake jacarandas.

Reviewers consistently praise the jacaranda-shaded setting at Richmond Park, along with a genuine variety of fresh produce, baked goods and local crafts, describing a relaxed community atmosphere that's grown noticeably busier and more varied over the years without losing its family-market feel.

Good to know before you go

Visiting in late spring is worth timing deliberately, since Richmond Park's jacaranda trees are in full bloom and add real character to a market morning. Arriving early for the December Christmas market is recommended, given how far the stall count grows beyond a typical Saturday.
