RG Strategic, as the town planning consultants, has just erected the signs for the Public Notification process for the proposed expansion of the beloved Noosa Farmers Market. This process will run for 15 business days, as required by the Planning Act.
“For over 20 years, the Noosa Farmers Market has been a cornerstone of our community, providing not only economic benefits to local farmers and producers but also fostering social interaction and a sense of belonging among residents. This expansion will help us continue to serve our community better and create even more opportunities for connection and growth.” – Shane Stanley, Director of Noosa Farmers Market
What’s New at Noosa Farmers Market?
The proposed expansion aims to enhance the market experience by extending operating hours, increasing the number of stalls, and providing additional parking. These improvements will allow more vendors to showcase their products and make it easier for visitors to enjoy all that the market has to offer.
Extended Hours of Operation
With extended hours, the market will now open earlier at 6 am, accommodating more visitors and giving you extra time to explore and purchase fresh, locally sourced produce. This change is designed to provide flexibility for both early birds and those who prefer to shop later in the day.
More Stalls, More Variety
By increasing the number of stalls, the market will offer a greater variety of goods. From organic fruits and vegetables to artisanal breads and unique handmade crafts, there will be something for everyone. This expansion supports local farmers and artisans, allowing them to reach a wider audience and thrive in our community.
Improved Parking Facilities
To ensure a hassle-free experience, the proposed plan includes the creation of additional parking spaces. This improvement will alleviate parking congestion and make it more convenient for you to visit the market, even during peak times.
The expansion of the Noosa Farmers Market will bring a range of benefits to shoppers and visitors.

RG Strategic was engaged by RLSSQ to redesign and seek the Food Premises approvals for our commercial kitchen and kiosk. Russell and his team at RG Strategic assisted with the project from initial planning, through to completion of work. Russel was well versed in council guidelines and requirements, and referred us to sources for cost-efficient suppliers, etc. The Food Premises project was completed quickly and passed Council inspection without any fuss. Thanks, Russell.

We recently undertook a boutique development at Peregian Beach, and Russell, Maree and the team were critical to the success of the endeavour. Super knowledgeable, proactive, professional, and reliable throughout the project journey. We quite simply couldn't have done it without them.
