What’s In Season
FRUIT
APPLES & PEARS: Packham pears are great for eating right now, and organic Pink Ladies are exceptionally delicious.
CITRUS: We're nearing the end of peak citrus season, as most varieties thrive in colder weather. Enjoy the vibrant orange hues while you can! Sumo mandarins are juicy and flavorful, and late-season Imperials are still around. Blood oranges are in season, and Seville oranges are perfect for making marmalade—get them while they last. Kumquats are still available, and limes are starting to return to a reasonable price. Last week, we had local organic lemons, but finger limes are currently out of stock.
EXOTIC: Try the intriguing white guava and enjoy star fruit, figs, and dragonfruit. We currently only have imported pomegranates.
TROPICAL: Pineapples are recommended for their great flavour and fresh tops. Early-season KP mangoes are available.
GRAPES: The Australian grape season has come to an end.
PASSIONFRUIT: Passionfruits are still of good value and worth picking up.
BERRIES: NSW blueberries have decent value and taste great. Strawberries are also quite affordable and delicious, with blackberries available as well.
BANANAS: We’re waiting for warmer weather to bring larger, more attractive bananas, but they’re always a reliable fruit with consistent flavour.
VEGETABLES
AVOCADOS: Hass and Reeds are in season.
SCARCE: Cabbages, round beans, and cucumbers are very scarce right now. If you’re looking for something fresh for lunchboxes and snacks, try loose baby cucumbers. Glasshouse eggplant is available, though it's on the pricier side.
TOMATOES: Cherry tomatoes are offering better value.
BEANS & PEAS: Local snowpeas and sugar snaps are in season. Broad beans are also available, while round beans remain scarce.
ASPARAGUS: The Aussie asparagus season has started with both standard and Le Grande bunches.
RECOMMENDED/DECENT VALUE: Broccoli and zucchini are good picks. Corn is also offering better value.
GARLIC: Aussie garlic is in season.
POTATOES: Enjoy organic local Dutch Cream potatoes and Nicolas, which are both eating well.
FLOWERS: Beautiful native flowers are in season, including Geraldton Wax, flannel flowers, blushing bride, and waratahs. Jonquils and daffodils are also of great value.
