What a week of weather! We sure have been copping it with the heat this week! We have invested in some returnable ice packs to go into boxes so that if we have another really hot spell again we will be able to keep the goodies in the boxes a little cooler

This week we have put up our new pricing policy on the website check the home page and follow the link.

Fruit and Veg news

Apologies for this week: We did not receive any large tomatoes from Terry, though we did sub with punnets of “Tommy Toes”. We ran short of Lady Bird products. We elected to not send out any purple Congos due to poor quality. We also ran short on Tofu.

The Pineapple is simply outstanding! We also have a few Bethonga golds available. They are unbelievably sweet with a very low acid content.

Rockmelon is down in price and they have been delicious.

The Seedless watermelon is some of the best I have eaten. Super sweet and crunchy.

We now have local French beans coming from Rob Conlan of Huonville. The quality is defiantly top notch and they are super fresh and crunchy.

Terry’s delicious Lebanese cucumbers have come down in price. They are so abundant and so yummy.

The new season potatoes have finally arrived! We will be starting of with Dutch Creams, King Edwards, Kennebecs and Kipfler.

We have an abundance of basil coming from Bruce and Clare Jackson of Yorktown organics. The Quality is outstanding and the price is down to $3.95 for 80g bag.

The quality of the bananas is finally back on track. The last few weeks have been looking a little lack lustre and suffering some collar rot (breakdown around the stem’s).

The Mangos have been so awesome. The batch we sent out last week still needed a little ripening so this week I have made sure we have some ripened up and ready for sale.

We will have some red seedless grapes on the list this week coming from Andrew Jones. They are the flame seedless variety and are outstanding!

More Berries!!!! Wil has started picking his Blueberry crop for 2009. They are loaded with flavour and sweetness. We are running a special price of $6.95 per punnet or 2 punnets for $12.

Paw paw is back on the menu also. We have been getting some amazing Red paw paw’s from Rose in Lemon springs Far north Queensland.

The Carrot season has come back to Tassie. Thank goodness. We were all getting a little tired of the hit and miss nature of the mainland carrot supply. We are back to the best and sweetest carrots from the Benson family of Forest Hill Farms.

We have an abundance of whole lettuce available this week coming from many growers. It seems the warmish weather and precipitation provides great growing conditions for lettuce. We have iceberg, Cos and baby cos in plentiful supply and fantastic quality. At a great special price of $3.95 ea or 2 for $5.95

Yorktown organics have released their latest product. Micro Salads – a mixture of their sprouts range packaged up in 80g bags. They are such a delicious combination.
