Midland is an eclectic and multicultural mix of producers, restaurants and small retailers. It's a haven for second hand shopping, craft supplies, and the emerging coffee scene will give any inner-city hub a run for its money. The town itself was established in the late nineteenth century and boasts a collection of historic buildings, including the iconic Midland Railway Workshops. A twenty five minute train ride north-east of Perth will take you directly to the town center. However, if you do decide to drive, an extra ten minutes north will land you on the doorstep of the Swan Valley's wine region.
Midland is a stones throw from the fertile grounds of the Swan Valley, and is the gateway to the Wheatbelt region. So unsurprisingly, the town is home to one of Perth's longest running farmers markets. Like clockwork, local growers, bakers, and crafty-types set up stalls along Old Great Northern Highway on Sunday mornings. You know you're getting farm fresh food when you can shop for a pumpkin from the back of a farmers truck.
