Who and what we are
Miranda Sharp co-ordinates the stallholders for the community groups and the three markets, which operate on a not-for-profit basis. Needless to say, she can usually be found on a Saturday morning at a farmers’ market somewhere!

A retired chef and caterer, Miranda is currently a freelance writer for The Age ‘Epicure’ section and has cheerfully devoted 25 professional years to Melbourne ’s food industry.
She finds it very hard to determine where work ends and life begins.

Farmers’ markets are the culmination of her interest in Victorian producers and the edible spoils of every season. It is her quest to provide opportunities for everyone who eats to access, enjoy and afford fresh food. And more fundamentally, to remind us all that without the farmers’, the rest isn’t possible.
