Still Need Something For Father’s Day?😬 We got you! 🙌

Chocolate, crunchy snacks and something delicious from the High Country sounds like a pretty solid last minute plan.

If you’re close drop into Pepo Farms all weekend and build Dad a stash he’ll actually want to open. Further away? Check out one of our stockists near you using our online locator😉

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandads and good blokes we’re lucky enough to have around us. 💚

So, what goes into making an award-winning oil?🥇🥈🥉

It starts with great Australian produce, and the relationships we’ve built with growers who care deeply about what they grow.

From there, it’s over to our artisan team. Each nut and seed behaves differently, so every batch asks something different of us; preparation, pressure, timing and plenty of attention to detail.

And when the oil is pressed, we’re not finished. The remaining press cake is milled and sieved into our nut and seed flours, finding more value in every harvest.

Great growers. Thoughtful craft. Less waste.

It’s a process we believe in, and one that sits at the heart of what we do at Pepo Farms.

Turns out, it produces some pretty special results too 🌱

Some of the most important crops we grow are the ones we never harvest.

Through Winter and early Spring, this mixed-species cover crop is quietly doing its work. Tillage radish flowering white, mustard in yellow, peas in pink, with rye and other carefully chosen species growing alongside them.

Together, they help build diversity above and below the ground, supporting healthier, more resilient soil as we prepare these paddocks for our late-spring pumpkin planting.

Beautiful, yes. But more importantly, purposeful.

The next pumpkin crop starts here, long before a seed goes in the ground. 🌱

Six oils. Six Sydney Royal medals. 🥇🥈🥉
We returned to the Sydney Royal Fine Food Show this year, and every Pepo Farms oil we entered came home with a medal!🎉

🥇 Gold - Hazelnut Oil
🥈 Silver - Pecan Oil
🥈 Silver - Pumpkin Seed Oil
🥈 Silver - Sunflower Oil
🥉 Bronze - Walnut Oil
🥉 Bronze - Almond Oil

We’re incredibly proud of those results. But behind every medal is a much bigger story.

There are farmers tending orchards, paddocks and crops across Australia. Seasons that don’t always behave. Years of knowledge and care invested into growing the best possible produce.

Then those ingredients arrive at Pepo Farms. We continue to stand by the traditional artisan pressing techniques at the heart of what we do; working in small batches and treating each crop for what it is, rather than trying to make every season behave exactly the same.

And behind the press is our team. The people who consistently show up, taste, adjust, learn and care about getting the very best from the ingredients our growers have entrusted to us.

Thank you to the Sydney Royal judging panel for the time, knowledge and rigour you bring to assessing Australian food. Independent recognition like this gives producers like us an important benchmark for the work we do.

To our team, this belongs to you.
And to the many Australian farmers who grow the hazelnuts, pecans, pumpkins, sunflowers, walnuts and almonds that make these bottles possible, thank you for giving us such exceptional ingredients to work with.

Great farming. Great produce. Thoughtful craft.
Turns out that’s a pretty good recipe. 🌱

Almond flour is back, and we’ve been putting it to work! Not just in cakes and baking, either. Here are three ways we’ve been loving it lately:

🤍 Whisked into a silky white sauce
Its flavour and texture are a natural fit for béchamel-style sauces, perfect poured over cauliflower, layered into veggie bakes or tucked into a lasagne.

🥞 Mixed into our famous crepes
Alongside rice and tapioca flours, almond flour brings a lovely nutty flavour and helps make these gluten-free crepes seriously good.

🥘 Stirred into stews & curries
A spoonful adds body, texture and a subtle nutty richness. Here it’s working its magic in our pumpkin red curry.

Almond flour has finally returned to Pepo Farms, and we’re remembering just how versatile it is.

Which one are you trying first?

🥄 LET’S GET READY TO CRUMBLE… AGAIN!
After a couple of weeks of work travel, team movements and some highly inconvenient scheduling for professional crumble judges, the Pepo Farms Crumble Championship is finally back in the arena.

And our final qualifier did not disappoint.

🌿 The Quirky Contender: Quince + Apple with Pumpkin Seed Flour crumble
🆚
🍊 The Zesty Challenger: Mandarin + Pear with Sunflower Flour crumble

This round brought plenty of opinions, some excellent team commentary and two little Test Kitchen discoveries along the way.

Poaching the quince left us with a beautifully floral, sweet-tart, orange-spiced liquid that we reduced and added back to the crumble.

And our Mandarin + Pear contender called in reinforcements, with a finishing drizzle of Wild Mother Mandarin & Blueberry Maple Syrup, thanks to a new friendship sparked at Two Providores.
Cheating? Perhaps. Delicious? Absolutely.

But there could only be one winner…
🏆 Mandarin + Pear with Sunflower Flour takes the final spot!

Which means our GRAND FINALE is set:
🍎 Apple + Raspberry with Walnut Flour
🌿 Rhubarb + Orange with Almond Flour
🍊 Mandarin + Pear with Sunflower Flour
Three victorious crumbles. One final tasting. One ultimate Pepo Farms Crumble Champion.

We’ll recreate all three for one last showdown before winter is out. Who are you backing for the title? 🥄🏆

That’s a lot of layers!🍫

Zach & the team reckon that’s what it takes to get our chocolate-coated hazelnuts just right, which also means a lot of trips back to the chocolate kettle.

It’s a process built on patience, consistency and a slightly obsessive attention to detail. From the growers who nurture the hazelnuts, to our artisan team building up every chocolatey layer, there are passionate people behind every bite.

Experience the delicious dedication for yourself at our Farmgate or direct-to-your-door online✨

A little crunch really does go a long way💚
Scatter them over roasted veggies, sprinkle them onto soup, bake them into crackers or simply add a handful to your next cheese and dip platter.

Our Australian grown pumpkin seeds are one of those pantry staples that can quietly find their way into just about anything - adding crunch, flavour and a little extra goodness along the way.
