Admission is free. Food outlets operate from 10am-10pm (Mondays to Saturdays), and 9am-10pm (Sundays and public holidays). Retail outlets close at 8pm.
It's not quite the farmer's markets we find overseas, but if it's variety you want, the Farmart Centre showcases over 25 individual farms under one roof. See how honey is made and collected at Xali (Bee Hive) or pick out fresh seafood at Crabby King. Roam further and discover vegetables, spices, horticultural crafts and ornamental fish. At Austwine, there are more than 60 varieties of red and white wine, starting from $20. Take it easy and linger. Or sign up for a guided Edu Farmart Tour by Uncle William, who will take you around Farmart and to external farms to study the local farming community.
