Situated in the historic village of Cygnet, the first town established outside Hobart, the town has a long history of boat building, agriculture, gold mining, and has recently had a resurgence of apple, cherry and berry growing, as well as other niche produce, including edible fungi. The town is situated only 56 kilometres from Hobart; an easy day-trip. The market is located in the historic town hall and flows out onto the pavement and carpark area. There is something for everyone, from garden sculptures to jewellery and vintage clothes or, perhaps, that special piece to remind you of your visit. Come and listen to the buskers and enjoy the vibe.
