The Local Farmers Market
A Sunday morning fixture at Wandi since 2015, now dog-friendly and free to enter every week.
About this market
The Local Farmers Market began in March 2015 as the Honeywood Market, a Sunday morning fixture for the growing communities south of Perth. It moved to the Wandi District Playing Fields in 2018 and changed hands in 2022, but the core has stayed the same: free entry, dog-friendly, and open every Sunday except over Christmas.
A decade of Sunday mornings at Wandi
That consistency is what's built the market's local following. Families come for the fresh produce, free-range eggs, food trucks and coffee vans, with a playground on site keeping kids occupied while parents shop. The 2022 ownership change brought an updated look without touching the format, and by 2023 the operators had expanded further, adding monthly twilight markets in nearby Cockburn and Kwinana to complement the main Wandi Sunday event.
Market at a glance
Reviewers highlight the relaxed, family atmosphere and the playground as reasons it works well for a full Sunday morning outing, with the food trucks and sausage sizzle giving it enough to do beyond just shopping the produce stalls.
The Local Farmers Market is still known locally by its original name, Honeywood Market, a decade after it started in March 2015, even though it has since relocated to the Wandi District Playing Fields and changed ownership.
Good to know before you go
Free parking is available on site, and the operators actively encourage walking or cycling in given how quickly the car park fills on a good morning. The market runs year-round except over the Christmas holidays, with exact break dates announced on its Facebook page each year.
