Jells Park itself is worth a visit with lots to see and do including walks, picnic areas, playgrounds, fishing, and even a bird hide. There is a also a nice cafe if you aren't full of baked goods from the market.
If the weather is nice it's a great idea to go for brunch, choose your personal calorific weakness from the market, and then find a nice spot to sit and enjoy an impromptu picnic. Then if you have the energy go for a stroll along one of the paths to work it off.
Access to Jells Park South is via
Ferntree Gully Road (Melway ref: 72 A10). Check
metlink for the best public transport for you.
Why? Great food in a picturesque setting.
