Over the past 6 years the Alliance has held many workshops, field days, catered for many other community groups, held 4 Food and Farm Fests and now is launching the SJ Farmers’ Market. The Market will showcase the bounty of the Serpentine Jarrahdale Shire and other Peel Region areas while providing the local population with the chance to get to know local farmers, learn what is seasonally available in our area and partake in the freshest possible food.
