Hi guys we are currently re working our budget for our trip. We leave in 6 weeks and cant wait. We are heading West and were wondering if there are many if any road side fresh produce stalls?

From where and to where John and Loz? What state or region will you be looking produce stalls? Bear in mind quarantine restrictions crossing state borders and other exclusions zones.

Sorry didnt include the important info. We are travelling from Vic over to Western Aus for the rest of the year. So I really ment are we able to find road side stalls in Western Australia. I realise we cannot carry produce between states.We will be starting in Essperance and travelling North Cheers

Unlikely in those areas John & Loz. The vegetable growing areas, where you may find some stalls, are nearer the coast. Even then, you may not find bargains. If you visit the south west, towns which have Sunday Markets often have fresh produce stalls.

Thanks Motherhen, I was hoping their may have been bags of Avacados or Mango and other yummy stuff along the way. Like you find Potatoes and Lemons and eggs in Vic. Never mind will keep my eyes open and fingers crossed

Mangoes are ripe in Kununurra around November. Some are grown in Carnarvon, if there are any trees left after the flooding. Not being an avocado fan, I'm not sure when they are ripe, but there are grown over a wide area - but not much inland.

Carnarvon and Kununurra were the only places we found those sort of places

Fruit vegetables and meat can be quite expensive in the west especially in mining areas.
