Kinfolk

Locals Annie and Silvana have booked a stall at our upcoming market featuring plants and seedlings … to raise awareness of Kinfolk. All off their own bat.

Which is fabulous … because we actually have a partnership with this organisation and have Kinfolk meals 🥘 in our freezer for anyone needing food support.

Here’s the pitch Annie asked us to share about their stall …. Wonderful!


Walk away with a fabulous FREE plant from the Makers Market on Saturday 27th. We have plants that are perfect for the balcony, plants that withstand the harshest conditions - the salvias, the succulents and simple daisies. We have plants that flower - button daisies, bush daisies and more. We have herbs.

Every single plant has been grown with love to raise awareness of Kinfolk’s Food Relief Program.

As we emerge from lockdown, we're feeling grateful but not completely unscathed, and we know we're not alone. For many businesses in Melbourne, the impact of necessary but commercially damaging lockdowns has been serious, and the profits few and far between.

Kinfolk are a Melbourne social enterprise, providing in-house capacity building to people from all walks of life, and essential food relief to people in hardship or escaping family violence. Like many in the hospitality industry they are struggling, and need our help to bounce back.

So that’s why at the Alphington Christmas Makers Market, we're inviting you to #PlantForKinfolk🌱!

Pick up a new plant for your post-lockdown garden and check out the pantry re-stocks, staples, and dinners that this wonderful social enterprise and its volunteers keep coming to women in need.

Look forward to seeing you on the day! And look out on Instagram for #plantforkinfolk🌱
