Nepean Growers & Markets is a vibrant new weekly market set along the stunning banks of the Nepean River at The Orchards, Tench Avenue, Penrith. Launching on 27 March and trading every Friday from 10:00am to 2:00pm, this market has been created to bring fresh produce, artisan goods, and quality handmade products to the heart of the Nepean Valley.

With ample nearby parking and easy access, it is a convenient and attractive destination for both locals and visitors to the area. Nepean Growers & Markets is focused on supporting genuine growers, makers, bakers, and creators. We are passionate about providing a platform for local farmers, fresh produce suppliers, specialty food producers, florists, plant growers, artists, designers, and small-batch artisans to connect directly with the community. If you grow it, bake it, brew it, sew it, craft it, design it, or create it, this market is designed for you. The Nepean Valley is an expanding and diverse region with strong demand for fresh food, quality products, and authentic market experiences. Our goal is to establish a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere where customers can shop for their weekly produce, discover unique handmade goods, enjoy gourmet treats, and support small businesses — all while enjoying the natural beauty of the riverside setting. As a weekly Friday market, Nepean Growers & Markets provides consistency for stallholders and customers alike. Regular trading encourages repeat visitation, builds customer loyalty, and allows stallholders to grow a steady client base within the community. Both permanent and casual stallholders are welcome, offering flexibility for established businesses and emerging traders. Operated by AMA Markets, the event is professionally managed with a focus on quality stallholder mix, strong promotion, and long-term sustainability. We are committed to creating a market that becomes a staple of the Penrith calendar and a valued gathering place for the Nepean community. Nepean Growers & Markets is more than just a place to shop — it’s a place to connect, support local enterprise, and celebrate the best of what the region has to offer.
