Market stalls will be open every day of the festival, promoting a range of local produce.
In 2016 over 40 stalls attended with some new additions this year.
Treasurer and stall organiser Mark Werts said the stalls and festival as a whole help promote local produce.
“The whole idea of the festival is to promote our local produce … which is what it was about 31 years ago when it first started,” he said.
“This year we’ll also have Blush tomatoes.
“All the money raised after the festival will be donated back to the community,” he said.
Mr Werts said last year around $60,000 was spent within the community to run the festival and in excess of $30,000 was raised to donate.
Some of the stalls include Silver and Ice Jewellery, home made pottery, John’s Pillows and homemade jams, the Aussie Macadamia Nut Hut, local potatoes and local homemade meals and snack in the gazebo.
