Capital Region Farmers Market
The Capital Region Farmers Market is Canberra’s real farmers market. As the largest farmers market in the Canberra Region, the Market is as authentic as can be and is always a hive of bustling activity. What makes the Market even better? As a project of the Rotary Club of Hall, all funds raised from Market go directly back into the community. We guess you can call us marketers marketing markets!
We’ve helped market the Market to grow, focusing our efforts on delivering the key messages that the Market is real, authentic and non-for-profit. We’ve done this by designing and launching a new website, creating video content, integrated advertising campaigns and public relations strategies, as well as developing and distributing a newsletter via email. We’ve also been known to create extra punny written content for their social media channels, assisting to grow their online community to over 15,000 followers across Facebook and Instagram.
In 2020, the Capital Region Farmers Market was able to remain open after being classified as an essential service for the community. Threesides helped CRFM by distributing important communications to ensure the public knew the Market would be open in a safe and responsible way. We also showcased many of the stallholders, and shared stories of their resilience after severe bushfires swept through many of the local regions.
