Get set for a morning bursting with good vibes because Market Mums’ Day is returning to the Adelaide Showground Farmers’ Market! Plus Shop to Win a Farmers Market Mother’s Day Hamper on the Day.
Join the excitement at the Adelaide Showground Farmers’ Market on Sunday 11 May for a fantastic celebration of all things Mum. Start the day with great coffee, fresh pastries, a homemade breakfast and some toe-tapping live music. There’s no need to rush — take your time wandering the stalls, soaking up the atmosphere, and letting Mum choose her own treats.
She might be tempted by MasterChef judge Poh Ling Yeow’s famous bakes at Jamface, a hot bagel from Barossa Bagels, or something sweet and warm from Toetjes — think Dutch pancakes and syrup waffles with hot chocolate.
And if you’re taking goodies home to make mum a a special breakfast in bed, the market has you covered. Pick up farm-fresh eggs from Feather & Peck, heritage bacon from San Jose Smallgoods, and sourdough or pastries from Croissant d’Or, Riviera Bakery, or Basket Range Bakery. Add fresh fruit, yoghurt from Paris Creek Farm, milk from Alexandrina Cheese Co. or Fleurieu Milk, and sprinkle with granola from Fodden.
Don’t forget something sweet! Treat Mum to a slice of traditional Slavic honey cake from House of Honey Cake, a handmade Portuguese tart from T’art, or a selection of seasonal French pastries from Mulots. Try the lavender fudge and brownies from Fleurieu Lavender, or for something a little different, grab an artisan alfajor biscuit sandwich from Opa Alfajores, or sourdough donuts in a variety of rich, irresistible flavours from Butter & Toast.
If she’s a macaron fan, stop by The Macaron Bar for a colourful assortment of delicate, handmade treats. Whatever her sweet tooth prefers, there’s no shortage of options to make her day. Complete the breakfast tray with a bouquet of fresh flowers from Kidman Flower Co. or Gooseberry Hill Farms, and you’ve got a thoughtful, locally made start to her day.
Family Fun for All
To keep the little ones entertained there will be a jumpy castle and face painting, so Mum can browse in peace (or join in the fun). There’s live music all morning, plenty of ready-to-eat options, and space to sit and enjoy it all together.
Shop & Win with the Mother’s Day Hamper Draw
Win a Market Mums’ Hamper packed with fresh produce and handmade goods from the stallholders — and they’ve added movie tickets too! Just shop between 8:30am and 11:30am on Sunday 11 May 2025 and enter someone special into the draw. The more stalls you visit, the more entries you can earn. Winners will be announced at 12 noon.
Special Guest – Poh’s Cooking Demo & Book Signing
The market will welcome Poh Ling Yeow for a special Mother’s Day cooking demonstration from 10am – 11am in the south-east corner of the pavilion. Poh will be sharing simple, nourishing recipes from her latest book What I Cook When Nobody’s Watching — which you can buy and have signed straight after at her Jamface stall. A perfect keepsake or gift for any home cook.
Everything at the market is grown or made right here in South Australia by the people who produce it. So whether you take Mum along, or shop early to surprise her at home, you’ll be supporting local growers, makers, and family-run businesses.
Entry to the Market is FREE, so walk, ride, drive or catch public transport and enjoy the authentic farmers’ market atmosphere. Parking is available via Rose Terrace, Wayville.
