PRODUCE UPDATE 🍎

Did your mother ever tell you that an apple a day keeps the doctor away? Well we have apples galore this week with 5 different varieties for you to choose from. The drop in temperature means we have new season Stanthorpe apples to enjoy and we are sourcing all but the pink ladies from the Granite Belt region. 

Royal Gala, Summer Delicious and Red Delicious apples all grown with organic farming practices from legendary Dennis. Certified Organic Pink Lady apples are from R+R Smith in Tassie. And Spray-Free Granny Smith apples from Mario Garcia, our newly added apple grower we support. 

Last week we posted about the farmer (Mario Garcia) behind our delicious granny smith apples. If you'd like to learn more about him and why he's passionate about supplying us with his nutrient dense apples, you can learn more about him here.

We also have a limited supply of beetroot bunches with leaves, sorrel and watercress. Be quick if you are wanting to add some variety into your diet this week with these.
