Key Stallholder Criteria

• Local First: All our stallholders must live in South Australia and grow or make their products here using mostly local ingredients.

   

• Hands-On Producers: You must be directly involved in creating what you sell, no middlemen or resellers.

   

• Current Membership: Stallholders must be active members of the Adelaide Hills Farmers Market. If you are a new stallholder without an AHFM membership you must get one as part of your onboarding process. 

   

• Market Mix: We take the market day experience to heart, carefully balancing a wide variety of products for customers with the need to ensure fair and sustainable sales opportunities for our stallholders.

   

• What We Don’t Allow: To stay true to our values, we don’t accept resellers, repackaged goods, or bric-a-brac.

Stallholder Values

Local, Fresh, Seasonal, Sustainable, and community.

 Organic, Biodynamic, GMO-free and Free-Range production methods are recognised and encouraged within the AHFM, and our customers have a strong expectation of authenticity. Stallholders are not permitted to use signage of ‘organic’, ‘biodynamic’ and/or ‘free range’ in the promotion of their product if they cannot verify such claims.
