THERE WAS A BUZZ IN THE AIR AT OUR MARCH HAWTHORN MAKERS MARKET.
We were delighted to welcome stallholders and visitors to our first Hawthorn Makers Market of the year on Sunday March 2 at the Hawthorn Arts Centre. The Market had a festive buzz, with the Glenferrie Festival in full swing just around the corner.
We introduced several new stallholders, including a talented maker of handcrafted lamps (see pic), a creator of lavender-based beauty products and an artisan crafting fluffy cat and dog toys (see pic). Another newcomer brought a delicious twist to our culinary offerings with his handmade pizza bases plus freshly prepared ‘ready to go’ small pizzas. He gave several pizzas away at the end of the day (see pic).
As always, our regulars added to the charm, including our Lyndon Joss, who once again generously offered jars of his scrumptious honey in exchange for a small cash donation to our charity funds. As in the past, they get snapped up quickly—just like hot cakes... or perhaps more accurately, like cold jars of honey! Thanks Lyndon.
Finally a big thank you to everyone (volunteers, stallholders, patrons and Council staff) who joined us and contributed to a successful 2025 launch market.
We’ll do it all again on Sunday 6th April from 10-3 at the Hawthorn Arts Centre.
