Subi Farmers Market
One of WA's original farmers markets, running since 2009 as a not-for-profit built specifically to support Subiaco Primary School.
About this market
Subi Farmers Market has run since 2009, making it one of the oldest and original farmers markets in Western Australia. More than 15 years of continuous Saturday trading later, it's fostered a genuinely strong community spirit while supporting countless small producers along the way.
A market built to fund a school, not a business
What sets Subi Farmers Market apart from most is its purpose: as a not-for-profit organisation, its entire mission is to support Subiaco Primary School on an ongoing, sustainable basis. Every stall fee and market visit indirectly funds the school, a structure that's kept the market genuinely community-rooted rather than commercially driven for its entire history.
Market at a glance
Reviewers consistently describe returning for years, praising fresh veggies and fruit, fabulous service and a genuinely good atmosphere, with live music, a nearby playground and plenty of shaded seating making it a family-friendly Saturday morning fixture rather than just a quick grocery stop.
Subi Farmers Market has funded Subiaco Primary School as its explicit mission since 2009, meaning every Saturday's shop has quietly supported the same local school for well over a decade.
Good to know before you go
Being one coffee stall short of demand means expecting a bit of a wait for a hot drink on a busy Saturday morning. The nearby playground makes it an easy pick for families wanting to combine a market shop with time for kids to play.
