We will be celebrating 25 years and launching our Monthly Friday Night Organic Market at the Summer Solstice. Brisbane’s first Organic Street Food Market will be set in Brisbane’s much loved Northey Street City Farm.
In a relaxed atmosphere among the gardens, bush tucker and fruit forests, you will be able to eat locally sourced organic food for a wholesome delicious dinner. Plenty of vegan and gluten free options will be available, including some of the finest tasting desserts you can imagine. Organic juices, smoothies, and refreshing drinks will be on offer.
You will be able to purchase fresh organic fruit and veg from local organic farmers, where your money goes directly to the farmer.
There will be loads of artists, healers and ethical makers to assist you in your health journey and commitment to a sustainable lifestyle.
Our family friendly, organic, community-based night market, will provide local and international entertainers, inspiring films, and meaningful presentations on ethical choices and sustainable practice.
An inclusive, kids friendly space, where everybody is valued and encouraged to live sustainably.
We are very excited to announce that the Vanua Fire will be performing! Vanua Fire is a fire dancing troupe hailing from Vanuatu, performing a spectacular show of fire twirling, fire breathing and acrobatics. Vanua Fire performs with specialised fire twirling equipment, to produce a high energy fire show for all ages. With over 7 years of nightly performances and tours, we are thrilled to be able to host them for a Brisbane show before they head off to Woodford!.
It’s going to be a mid-summer night to remember.
