Every Saturday, tucked away in the sleepy streets of North Perth, the is drawing a discerning crowd.

Founded by the P&C Association of the Kyilla Primary School, the market has been set up with the goals of bringing the farm to the plate and connecting community.

The market is held on the oval opposite the primary school and takes advantage of the nearby children's play equipment and it's walking distance from a highly populated area to bring in the families. Taking a stroll around the market stalls you will overhear snippets of school gossip and parents meeting their children's friends for the first time - the strategy is working!

The market stalls themselves are almost of a bespoke nature. While the regular fruit and vegetables are well represented, it is the gourmet and specialty treats that set this market apart.

Ready made Indian style meals, freshly made pasta ready to cook, and home made cured meats are all drawcards for the less skilled cooks among us.

Farm to plate products all feature benefits such as preservative free or organic, just ask the friendly stall holders about their produce to get the full run down. The variety of items available for those who like to cook from scratch using local and fresh ingredients are plentiful; fresh fish, dairy products, lamb, duck, rabbit, grains such as quinoa and spelt, and many more.

The baked goods at the Kyilla Markets are worth a special mention. Any kind of bread you can think of is on sale and then there are the specialty treats.

The Holy Bagel The Holy Bagel Facebook page offer about 15 different types of bagels freshly made and preservative free. You can eat them there with a "schmear" of your choice or take them home to enjoy at leisure.

Cherry Bombe Catering ( cherrybombecatering.com.au ) provides a veritable banquet of French inspired pastries and tarts featuring chocolate or citrus or fruit highlights in every mouthful.

The Kyilla Primary School P&C run their own stall selling freshly cooked breakfast rolls using free range eggs, bacon and spinach; all sourced from the stall holders. Teamed with a freshly brewed coffee your Saturday morning is taken care of.

The is at the smaller end of the size-scale when compared to others in Perth however the quality and range of produce available to try here more than makes this one worth a visit.
