☀️ *Market Update: Spring is Officially Here!*
Australian *asparagus* has hit the markets, bringing the ultimate hallmark of spring to our shelves! It is fresh, crisp, and ready for your dinner plate. Adding to the excitement, *mangoes* are making their very first appearance of the season! These are gorgeous size 12 mangoes, meaning they are beautifully large, juicy, and ready to enjoy.
The considerably warmer weather this week does mean some of our temperature-sensitive berries will be a little more touch-and-go. For the most reliable pick, blueberries are your best bet right now since they handle the heat beautifully and won’t spoil fast.
The great news is that fruits are coming down in price across the board! This includes sweet, refreshing favourites like watermelon and pineapple. On top of that, citrus is still fantastic across the board, with blood oranges and mandarins leading the way with incredible flavour.
For your dinner basket, broccoli is very affordable this week, making it the perfect time to stock up. Other items that are looking good include cauliflower, fennel, and iceberg lettuce.
While juice has taken a price hit across the board unfortunately due to broader market shifts, orange juice and clear apple juice are still on sale this week! This is the final week of the sale, so make sure you grab a bottle—they have long use-by dates so you can easily stock up your fridge.
In other news, finger limes and figs are officially out of season and have become very expensive, so we have taken them off our list for now.
Thank you for shopping fresh and eating with the seasons.
