Marrickville won't sit still – now this Sydney suburb has scored its own Harris Farm
Foodies of Marrickville, we've got good news. The Inner West suburb may well be home to one of the best farmers markets in Sydney, but if you're a Marrickville resident keen to forage for fresh produce all through the week, the game has just changed. One of Sydney's favourite green grocers, the family-owned Harris Farm, has just opened its 33rd store, right in the heart of one of Sydney's trendiest neighbourhoods. Marrickville is definitely not sitting still – this new development opens after a Marrickville gem took home the People's Choice Award for Sydney's Best Restaurant (and also ranked on the list of the best steak restaurants in the world); Gelato Messina opened its new HQ and cult-following bagel store Lox in a Box opened not one but two Marrickville locations. The trendy, post-industrial suburb (the beating heart of Sydne's underground music scene) is also home to the gym/"wellness playground" largely regarded as Sydney's very best. The new Harris Farm mecca of fresh produce occupies a 1,800sqm space at Marrickville's new "Wicks Place", which has been under development at 186 Victoria Road, Marrickville – just down the road from the neighbourhood favourite pizza joint Pizza Madre and near the Vic on the Park (home to one of the city's most consistently popping beer gardens). The new development is also home to a branch of Sydney's beloved Chargrill Charlies (one of the best charcoal chicken shops in the city) and 270 apartments (spread across five buildings).Wondering what's in store? Expect Harris Farm's signatures including their affordable, sustainable Imperfect Picks range, freshly-made treats (juice, tiramisu etc) and a huge range of seasonal produce. Plus: fresh bread from Bonfire Bakery, ethically-sourced fish from Fish in the Family, meat from Proper Meat, cold cuts from HFM Delicatessen and more than 500 types of cheese.

The ‘SNL' Sketch Taylor Swift Asked Lorne Michaels to Cut
Saturday Night Life mastermind Lorne Michaels reportedly rebuffed a request by mega pop star Taylor Swift to scrap a spoof of one of her popular music videos. As the sketch show gears up to celebrate its 50th anniversary in a live special Sunday at 8 p.m. EST, Vulture reported that SNL organizers asked Swift in 2015 to participate in a parody of her 2014 Bad Blood music video. Swift reportedly contacted Michaels personally to decline the offer and request that he pull the sketch entirely. However, Michaels insisted, telling her, 'Taylor, I do not negotiate with terrorists,' Vulture reported. The sketch went off without a hitch as planned. Michaels later reportedly received a note from Swift that said: 'I hope there's no bad blood.' SNL has lined up a bevy of guest stars, former cast members, and special appearances for its upcoming three-hour special on NBC, including Amy Poehler, Eddie Murphy, Fred Armisen, Jane Curtin, Kate McKinnon, Chevy Chase, Jimmy Fallon, Tina Fey, Will Ferrell, and more. The show kicked off anniversary festivities on Friday with a Homecoming Concert that featured collaborations between various stars—including Lady Gaga performing with former cast member Andy Samberg and Jerry Seinfeld singing with the Backstreet Boys. 'It's so exciting,' said former cast member Molly Shannon about the special in an interview with the Today Show. 'But I also forget, I get nervous. There's nothing like live performance. ... I forget the adrenaline. So it's so exciting. But it feels like coming home.' Lady Gaga just sang D*ck in a Box with Andy Samberg. THIS is an entertainment crossover. #SNL50 — BravoBabe (@thebravobabe_) February 15, 2025
