Biodynamic root veg from near Geelong continue to be our favourite of seasonal veg - beetroot, celeriac, parsnip - along with biodynamic cauliflower from up north.

And you’ll find celery, chinese greens and capsicum in the boxes for the week.

Eat well,
Graham

PS. Choose from one of our box selection, and let us know your “no list”; or make one of your own by choosing the vegetables and fruit you prefer.

THIS WEEKS PRODUCE

With the sun firmly behind the clouds, Mildura growers now picking biodynamic GREEN CAPSICUM.

And the lack of warmth has all but slowed the LETTUCE down to zero growth for now - hoping to see them back again soon.

CELERY and PAK CHOY will be the greens for the boxes, with some MIXED SALAD bags in the larger boxes.

Root veg coming from biodynamic grower Vortex down Inverleigh near Geelong with delicious PARSNIP and BEETROOT being picked this week (so too CELERIAC).

Fresh TURNIP coming from down that way also, from Joe just outside Colac.

Adams CARROTS and POTATO from Bullarto continue to be a mainstay in the boxes.

JAP PUMPKIN and large SWEET POTATO for the boxes - and for sweet potato aficionados out there we still have the deliciously sweet PURPLE SWEET POTATO.

ZUCCHINI and CUCUMBER seem to be finished now - may make a cameo in the coming weeks but its end of regular appearance.

For fruit, Mildura citrus is where we’re focussing with sweet Imperial MANDARIN, new season CARA CARA oranges and RED GRAPEFRUIT.

Tart and juicy TANGELO from Swan Hill are having a nice early season; and local LEMONS have started bringing the price down considerably.
