Kyilla Community Farmers' Market
A Saturday morning market run by a primary school P&C, serving North Perth, Coolbinia, Mount Hawthorn and Leederville.
About this market
Kyilla Community Farmers' Market grew out of Kyilla Primary School's Parents and Citizens Association, which set it up with a dual goal: get fresh, farm-direct food into the neighbourhood and give the surrounding community a reason to gather on a Saturday morning. It's run at Kyilla Park on Clieveden Street, and doubles as a meeting point for four adjoining suburbs.
A school-run market with a genuine local reach
The market draws shoppers from Kyilla Park itself as well as Coolbinia, Mount Hawthorn and Leederville, running Saturdays from 8am to 11.30am. Stalls cover farm-direct seasonal fruit, vegetables and meat, along with locally produced bread, honey, nuts and flowers. Food options on site include a straightforward bacon-and-egg sandwich as well as a vegan alternative, which keeps the market useful as a breakfast stop rather than just a produce run.
Market at a glance
Among the produce and baked goods, one stallholder sells locally produced, small-batch gin, an unusual find at a market that started life as a school fundraising initiative rather than a specialty food event.
Alongside the farm-direct produce, one regular stallholder sells locally produced, small-batch gin, an offering you wouldn't expect at a market founded by a primary school P&C.
Good to know before you go
Because it wraps up by 11.30am, arriving earlier in the morning gives the best selection before stallholders start packing away seasonal produce. The Kyilla Park setting keeps it walkable for residents across North Perth, Coolbinia, Mount Hawthorn and Leederville rather than requiring a drive.
