New Face at the Markets
The Boyanup and Districts Farmers’ Market is proud to announce the appointment of Terry Wooltorton as its new market manager.

Terry brings to the Market considerable organisational skills from his background in education and also a keen interest in what is the Market ethos: sustainability and fresh food.

His interest in fresh food has led him to not only have his own organic garden but also to be an active member of the newly formed Bunbury Community Garden.

Terry said “I am currently working to transform my suburban backyard into a productive fruit and vegetable garden and to retrofit our house to minimize energy and water use.“

As well as teaching in the South West and the Kimberley, Terry also spent two years living and working in Cambodia on sustainable livelihoods, human  rights, food security, ecotourism and water and sanitation projects.

Terry is a long term resident of the district having lived in Stratham for 23 years and now a resident of Bunbury. He is married with 2 adult sons.

A registered Building Sustainability Assessor and Environment and Sustainability Consultant, Terry also lectures part time at Edith Cowan University and also is completing a degree in Environmental Management.

The next Boyanup and Districts Farmers market will be held on March 28 and this will be a great opportunity for vendors and customers to meet Terry and to make suggestions for the market’s progress.

The markets are held all year round with the market bell ringing at 8 am to signal the beginning of trading, and ringing again at 12 noon to conclude trading.

“At some markets some stalls being sell out early, so it is a good idea to get there as early as possible,” said Mr McClare, Chairman of the Management Committee.

Products sold at the markets include grass fed lamb and beef , seafood, free range eggs, a great range of seasonal fruit and vegetables, including stone fruit, local cheese and olive products, baked goods, preserves to name but a few of the many different products. 

People wishing to find out more about the markets are welcome to ring Terry on 0448 806 833 for more information.
