Greetings from the farm! Blueberry season is finally upon us - our little bushes are fruiting nicely, as are those of our neighbour, Nikki! We'll be picking from both, so look out for some sweet, juicy organic berries filled with natural antioxidants in both our Standard and Large Boxes this coming week. We also still have Avocados in our Large, and as for the rest - see the full forecasts below...
We have a spicy homemade Add-on available: Lemon Atchar! This zingy pickle is the perfect condiment for any meal, its wonderfully morish - you might find yourself eating it straight out of the jar. It is made with love by our Aunt Zahra, using our organic lemons. The recipe is a spin on the traditional Indian atchar with a secret secret twist on the Cape Malay version.
Blueberries that are straight off the bush taste so different!
