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 SPINACH down to zero growth for now - hoping to see them back again soon.

CELERY and LETTUCE will be the greens for the boxes.

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

Fresh TURNIP coming from down that way also. JAP PUMPKIN and large SWEET POTATO for the boxes.

ZUCCHINI and CUCUMBER are absolutely loving life! Despite the cloud cover, these summer favorites are in full swing and looking incredibly crisp, glossy, and abundant for this week’s boxes.  

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