Sadly only 4 Goulburn tragics can make it this year unlike last year when we had a dozen and security on our purchases. :lol:
Good luck to the sellers and purchasers on Saturday,

The Market Day is over and it was a success from all accounts. It was a bigger event than last year with more happy sellers and buyers.
Sells were happy with thousands of dollars in transactions made and unwanted trees disposed of.
Buyers were happy with some great purchases of new project trees.

Following are some phone pictures I snapped when I got a chance.
