A Year in the Making
Long before the Royal Adelaide Show gates open, SACWA members across South Australia are already preparing.
For almost a year, talented hands have been sewing, knitting, crocheting, crafting, cooking and preserving—all in readiness for the SACWA Makers Market.
Every handmade item and carefully filled jar represents hours of work, traditional skills, creativity and pride. Many of these skills have been passed from one generation to the next and are now being lovingly shared with Show visitors.
When you purchase from the SACWA Makers Market, you are supporting the work of The South Australian Country Women’s Association Inc. and recognising the dedicated members who make it all possible.

🍑 Tasty Tuesday – Apricot Jam
Few things capture the taste of summer quite like homemade apricot jam. Bright, golden and full of fruity flavour, it is delicious spread generously on warm toast, scones or freshly baked bread.
This traditional recipe, shared by Mrs W. H. Vigar of Lameroo, is a lovely reminder of the time-honoured country practice of preserving seasonal fruit to enjoy throughout the year. ❤️
