This season we are once again proud to support Neil & Tanya at Gayndah with their beautiful organic citrus. Whilst Neil is not certified organic he does grow organically without the use of horrible chemicals. We've been to visit him countless times and he is always super chatty about his trees and how he is keeping them strong and healthy.Â
This year Neil has taken over another orchard that has been left somewhat wild, and not been managed or sprayed for a few years. You'll notice some spots on the skin, which are a non toxic fungus that can damage the tree and fruit. Typically conventional growers avoid this or treat it using chemical sprays.Â
We're taking a more supportive approach. By helping Neil and taking the wild spotty oranges, we are supporting him in continuing to regenerate the orchard!
More than just a cheeky emoji, the eggplant is so immensely versatile with recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Late winter - early Spring eggplant is in season and abundant. Perfect timing for these cooler days and frosty evenings.Â
What about you, do you love eggplant, or are you not so keen on this misunderstood veg?Â
