The Saturday market at Perth City Farm feels like a small city pause: fresh produce, a working garden and coffee in East Perth. Its seasonal hours change in December, so arrive for the correct morning rather than relying on the farm's weekday opening hours.

What you will find
The farm's market page focuses on organic, biodynamic and spray-free Western Australian produce, local growers and goods with less packaging. Its own stall sells produce from the farm, pantry items and nursery plants. The operator gives examples of regular traders, but explicitly says stallholder attendance and available produce change. If you have a particular fish, fruit or allergy concern, ask the market or seller for this week's details.
The market occupies the courtyard of a working urban farm. You can look at what is growing and use its visitor signs, but do not assume every bed or working area is open for picking or wandering. The on-site café is a separate business, and food or seating options can change. A coffee stop is easy to plan; a table for a group is something to confirm.
Getting there and timing it well
The organiser's contact page gives 1 City Farm Place, East Perth. Check your walking route from your chosen stop and consult Transperth for current connections. If you are driving, check local parking signs and event notices rather than assuming a space on site. Seasonal Saturday market hours are 8am–noon April to November and 7.30–11.30am December to March. Its farm and café display different operating hours; they do not extend the produce market into the afternoon.
Bring bags and a way to keep chilled food safe on the way home. The market can be pleasant with children, but paths and vendor setups vary; ask the organiser about a specific access need. For another Saturday producer market near a school, see Subi Farmers Market. The photo depicts the farm in 2013 and does not show a current market session.
