Loads of wonderful marketeers to meet you at Cambridge Markets EQ this week
Our Saturday market at the Entertainment Quarter is practically bursting at the seams with incredible stallholders ready to welcome you for a spot of school holiday shopping. For kiddies, the Paris-style fashions from Paris Daisy Couture are perfect for budding trendsetters, while Cute Educational Toys brings the fun to learning with their wall charts and books, and The Pixie Patch sprinkles a little magic with their pixie houses, teenie-tiny interior furnishings for the stylish pixie abode, and of course, adorable wooden gnomes and pixie dolls. Treat yourself to a new wardrobe piece from our slow fashion stallholders, such as Raw Essence and Read and Bell, or collect a new trinket from Bowerbird, Antonia Scales and Willen Collection. You can pick up a candle or fragrance to enhance your self-care rituals from Verve Candles or Elegance by A, and make a spiritual connection with a crystal-studded candle from Empath Ana.
If you’re more inclined to connect with your stomach than profound inner peace, swing by Savannah Estate for some excellent wines, pick up a bite at our deli counter, and enjoy a restorative brew from Tea Infusions.
If your plant life is in need of a little makeover, get along to the EQ every second Saturday of the month (and at the Ryde Wharf Market this Sunday) to pay a visit to Honey & Ivy. Their beautiful, hand-painted pots are crafted in a small Sydney studio with genuine devotion to bringing bright design into your home. From bold geometric patterns to sweet spotted pots, you’ll find something to have your household foliage looking its most chic – so long as you keep up the watering, that is.
If your four-legged friend is a legitimate member of your family, you’ll want to stop by K9 Mind&Body to ensure their physical and mental health is in top shape. Beginning as a project to make delicious, healthy treats for a very unwell fur child called Caesar, who was undergoing treatment for chronic kidney disease, K9 Mind&Body soon began cooking up homemade preservative- and additive-free, whole meat dehydrated treats for other beloved pets. Whether your pup is in good health or convalescing, stop by for a nutritious treat to ensure they keep in their best-possible shape.
Let your market basket runneth over with lovely, seasonal fruit and vegetables from our local grocers, Prickle Hill, Veggie King and Banana Bar. This week Prickle Hill has jewel-like Pomegranates and plump, seedless grapes from Griffith, plus corella and bosc pears, and gala and fuji apples from Orange. As always, Mayfarm Flowers are busy picking their blooms today to deliver their fresh fragrance to you at the market tomorrow.
The Sydney Family Show goes on this week at the EQ. Join the fun with rides, games, showbags, face-painting, and pony rides. It’s the perfect school holiday activity to get everyone out of the house, away from their screens, and revelling in some good, old-fashioned, carnival-style fun. Leave the kids to it while you visit us at the market or jump right in and get involved in all the action.
Don’t forget: for a relaxed Sunday outing, join us at the wonderful Ryde Wharf Market this week from 8am-2pm at Anderson Park.
Thank you and enjoy the holidays.
