The Rotary Ipomoea and Forbes Farmers markets were held at Sir Francis Forbes Park and Victoria Park respectively, while Forbes Public School hosted the Family Fun Day and Markets on the school oval.
Each of the events had its own ‘flavour’, with locally grown and made the focus at the Farmers Markets, lots of products for families and young children at the school markets, and a mix of everything at the Rotary Ipomoea day.
Forbes Farmers Market committee spokeswoman Rachel Wythes said last weekend's exhibit - just the second to be held at Victoria Park - had attracted five new stallholders.
She said organisers and vendors were now looking forward to the Christmas markets, which will again be held at Victoria Park.
Saturday's Rotary Ipomoea Markets were the last for the year, while Forbes Public School's fun day was a new initiative.
