I didn't take any pictures, as I want to take some when it's complete. It is still half under construction. What I noticed with these changes is that they have also updated their produce. There is a lot more high end condiments, cheeses, veggies & meats. So, it's a little more like the other Foodlands now. This is a relief for me as it is not far from home and I used to drive past this Foodland to get to the Norwood one. I think that the locals will be pleased with the changes! Onya Magill Foodland!

I was so excited when I heard that a farmer's market will be opening down my side of town…read more This little market has only been open a month and so it's not huge, but it has some pretty fantastic little stalls available. It's an outdoor market and due to some new re-development next to the Hart Mill, there is a fantastic playground for the kids and a lovely seating area. The market starts at 9am to 1pm and with food stalls, I highly recommend coming for a delicious breakfast. They have pop-up cafe serving fairtrade Campos coffee, there are also many food stalls with the emphasis on local. From Bakerhus pies and sweet pastries, raw bliss balls and of course a stall from the famous Port Adelaidean cafe, Red Lime Shack, who sell delicious smoothies and vegetarian delights. Stick around and listen to the buskers, then wander around and pick up some organic fruit and vegetables, grab a freshly pressed organic apple juice, perhaps purchase some seedlings to grow your own herbs and vegetables. Then back to one of the other food stalls for an early lunch! You can take the girl out of Port Adelaide, but you can't take Port Adelaide out of the girl! I am proud of the area and proud of how its evolving. I love the alternative funky vibe and how passionate our local community and businesses are ensuring a bright future for the area and supporting locals. Here is a list of the stalls that are currently at the markets. Fingers crossed the list gets bigger soon!

I had to stop myself from patting all of the doggies who had come along with their owners. Great coffee. Lots of breakfast & lunch options if you are heading down for food. Unique organic options and fresh produce. It seems a new stall opens every week. The council have put a lot of money towards making this a unique and viable little spot with toilet facilities, a sparkly new playground and lots of free parking. Wild at Hart also had organised a small circus tent with a child friendly show playing the sunday I was there. It really is a gorgeous little part of Adelaide on the waterfront and I'm so glad that it's getting the attention and praise it deserves.

You CAN pay over the odds at a BP service station, there's two open 24/7 in the area - however if you're not going at paying two to three times what the can of catfood is worth at your local supermarket, you CAN go to the IGA... Open till midnight, this is often a lifesaver for me - 15 years after leaving the Gold Coast I still have the odd lapse of concentration and forget I live in Adelaide, home of the 5pm closure, rather than a 24 hour fantasmogoria of shopping opportunities. You can get everything here from cat food to breakfast cereal, and the store is open till midnight. OMG, midnight, whatever is Adelaide coming to??? Until Campbelltown gets a 24 hour shop of some kind, the IGA is it. It provides absolute gold by being open way past the time every other supermarket has curled up with it's pillow and a nice fluffy doona. Kudo's IGA, I love you!!!

I find myself here a lot actually, I should probably organise myself a little better, but then again I know this place is here as a sort of grocery safety net.

One of my main call cards for Norwood is to get my shopping done at yet another amazing Foodland…read more Now, this particular Foodland is one of the biggest of the Romeo Group. Set in the heart of Norwood shopping district and with a huge fan base, this groceries store has everything to offer. You are greeted at the entry by the large Deli section, fully stocked with the most amazing cheeses, meats, salads, roast chickens and seafood. All the produce is fresh and ready to be packaged up for you to take home. The staffs in the deli section are always busy! You will need to reach for a number as I almost guarantee you will need to wait your turn. They are happy for you to try different sliced meats and olives, so do not hesitate to ask to assist with your decision. As for the fruit and veg, it is generally well priced and fresh. You will find a good organic produce section here with a larger than normal. The fruit and veg are always arranged quite neatly and during the busy periods you will find staff constantly re-stocking. Like most Romeo Foodlands, you will find a very diverse range of products from around the world and a lot of locally sourced goods. They are very South Australian proud and I have found the most amazing local products here. One thing to mention about this store is the amazing bakery section. The bread, rolls, pastries and cakes are all of very high quality and are baked daily. You will find all different types of sourdoughs, rye, baguettes, pizzas, loafs, etc... I absolutely love the rye rolls here! Goes down well with cream cheese from the deli, avocado and Hahndorf Harris Smoked Salmon from the fridge section. Thanks Romeos for supporting South Australia!

Wide eyed, unable to breath properly from heart palpitations because "can't talk...too excited..." This place has gathered everything I love about Adelaide and plonked it into the trendiest warehouse shed thing at the back of IGA on Gilbert St. It's even run by the same SA family! Every Sunday from 9am-2pm this shed will open its doors to stallholders who want to sell their wares. From bakers to vegan cafes, coffee shops, seedling stalls and more this little collective of organic, vegan, raw and healthy food is all a bit too much for me. Want to try some kombucha? Hells yeah! How about a freshly steamed mussel from the coast of SA? Ok! It's like a farmers market but smaller, less crowded (not for long I'm sure) and is 5 minutes from my home so wins 5 stars in my books. So why only 4 stars then? I do think there needs to be more fresh fruit and veg options and a bit more diversity in stalls for people like me who want to do their week's shop here (ie. 3 bakeries in the one small location is a bit much). I am officially signed up as a Market Member already and for $20 per annum you get invited to private events at The Shed, receive discounts at stalls and a cool chopping board for progressive tasting plate specials from stalls each weekend. So if you have nothing to do next Sunday and want to see a spectacle, come on down to the Market Shed to see your resident pug faced, over excited local shopping, slurping coffee and getting her organic on.

There in only it's third market I found a variety of stalls & very enthusiastic producers - all of whom were willing to spend the time with every customer. A face-painter (only $3!) and musos at each corner of the space added to the enthusiastic vibe - tangible despite a couple of summer showers that may have kept larger hoardes of customers away. Despite it's small(er) size (of comparative markets such as the Adelaide Farmers Showgrounds Market) of 20-30 stalls, the array of stalls and the promises of more to come (think weekend evening members activities) have got my vote. Visit during 2013 to become a member for an amazing introductory price of $20 & support Adelaide's newest market with an organic, artisan & community focus!

I was a bit disappointed by this one, usually they stock tonnes of vegan and vego specific brands you don't usually find in the shops but no fake-on or not dogs in sight. There were some great salads though that were pretty well priced when paying by the kilo between roughly $16-24, highly recommend the pumpkin and feta which saved our skins when we brought it as a last minute bbq present. So pretty stoked at that! Great hours and a god send for public holidays.
