Hey foodie! 👋🌿
Hope you've had a wonderful week! 💛
Well, would you look at that… RAIN! 🌧️ And goodness, was it welcome.
After a pretty tough dry spell, many of our farmers have finally had a little relief over the past week. It's been a challenging time for growers, with dry conditions making life on the land that much harder.
Thankfully, our regenerative farmers have been thinking ahead, using cover crops to help protect their soil, retain moisture and keep things as healthy as possible through the dry.
Unfortunately, the outlook for the rest of the year isn't looking particularly promising on the rain front, so we're keeping everything crossed for a few more good downpours.
If you've got a spare rain dance in you, now would be a good time to bust it out. 💃🌧️
In happier news, we've got some beautiful fresh produce on special this week, a few new goodies on the shelves and some exciting things on the way!
Let's get into it…

🛒 NEW GROCERIES 🛒
Sometimes you just want something cold, fizzy and lemony without all the sugar.
Enter Lemmy!
This refreshing little number is made with real lemon juice, natural flavours and plenty of bubbles, sweetened with erythritol, stevia and monk fruit instead of sugar.
Perfect for those warmer afternoons when plain water just isn't quite cutting it.
Serve it over ice with a slice of lemon, and you're laughing. 🍋
🥣 Mungalli Organic Natural Greek Yoghurt – 800g
Calling all yoghurt lovers!
We've welcomed Mungalli's beautiful 800g Biodynamic Organic Natural Greek Yoghurt to the shelves.
Thick, creamy and deliciously tangy, it's made using organic biodynamic milk and is wonderfully versatile.
Spoon it over fresh fruit and granola, add a dollop to curries, blend it into smoothies or mix it with lemon, garlic and fresh dill for an easy homemade dressing.
Speaking of which… that spray-free dill from Farmer Kel would go beautifully with this. Just saying. 😉
