Fortunately, the Mooroopna Christmas Market on Sunday, December 22, was brimming with great finds — from homemade candles and charming homewares to toys, pet products and must-have local produce — for a stress-free holiday shopping spree.

News photographer Rechelle Zammit ventured to Ferrari Park in Mooroopna to capture the day.
