Green Flea Markets (West End)

Green Flea Markets (West End)

The Green Flea Markets are held every Saturday morning in Davies Park, West End, Queensland (Australia).

The Market site is home to a number of giant fig trees which have recently become infected with a fungal disease (Phellinus Noxius) that is spreading all over Queensland. This is particularly interesting as the treatment of the trees is threatening the existence of this unique market.
