Farmacy Weekly Report 2025 Week #51

Slices of fruits on a table

Hey foodie! 🍉💛

We hope you’ve had a beautiful week and aren’t getting swept up by the Christmas chaos. Over here, the team is running on mangoes and gratitude as we pack your orders, chat with farmers, and get ready for the new year. Get ready, ‘cause we’ve got some super tasty updates from the farms and from one of our delightful local bakers this week.

FROM THE FARMS

Organic Rockmelon – Boruca Farm, Cooktown

Summer rockmelon is here to rock your socks off! These beauties are grown certified organic up in tropical FNQ, where the sun kisses them just right. Sweet, juicy, and tastes the way real fruit should.

Organic Achacha – Boruca Farm, Cooktown

If lychees, longans and mangosteen had a tiny tropical love child, it would be the Achacha. Sweet, tangy and unbelievably refreshing. Just pierce the skin, pop it open and eat the flesh around the seed. They’re full of vitamins, antioxidants and hydration.

Spray-Free Limes – Sandy Creek Gourmet Produce

Fresh, tangy, ridiculously juicy limes from our mates Kel and Rick at Sandy Creek. They’re green, they’re zesty, and you might spot the occasional yellow one (they’re still perfect
 they’re just having a little identity crisis).

🎄ORGANIC CHRISTMAS FRUIT BOXES ARE BACK

‘Tis the season to celebrate with all the best summer fruits! We’ve put together some stunning, Organic Christmas Fruit Boxes overflowing with mangoes, stone fruit, berries, melons and all the juicy bits that make an Aussie Christmas. Perfect for the table, the esky, or the family beach trip.


🍰
FROM OUR MAKERS

Indie Bakehouse – Peach & Ricotta Cake

This cake tastes like sunshine in slice form. Made with creamy ricotta, sweet peaches, Echo Valley eggs, real butter and a little lemon + vanilla magic
 It’s soft, tender and super dreamy. The ideal dessert for summer holiday gatherings. You can get it in slices or as a whole cake.
