Don’t take this off your menu until Christmas!

Barbecue asparagus is in full swing and the quality speaks for itself. Thick, tender, and Australian grown. October and November are its peak and every restaurant should have it on right now.

This is one of the contradictions that makes fresh produce fascinating.

When there’s suddenly a lot of something available, restaurants can get exceptional produce at exceptional value.

That’s an opportunity.

But behind that opportunity is usually a much more complicated supply story.

We’re constantly balancing what’s happening today with relationships we’ve spent years building.

Because we want our customers to get value.
But we also want great growers producing great produce next season, and the season after that.

The cheapest buy isn’t necessarily the smartest buy.

Months of sweet, beautiful grapes ahead 🍇

Sweet Globe seedless grapes are in from Queensland and heading down the east coast for months. Crunchy, sweet, and premium quality. Plan them in and keep them on.

Fresh produce isn't a static commodity.

Quality changes, markets move and sometimes decisions need to happen very quickly.
But speed shouldn't come at the expense of strong relationships.

With the Horticulture Code currently under review, there's an important industry conversation happening around transparency and what information growers should receive when their produce is sold.

From our perspective at PARISI, regulation matters. But some of the strongest grower relationships we've built have lasted because both sides understand what they're trying to achieve together.

Good business in fresh produce has always depended on good relationships.

Spring might have started weeks ago. On the market floor, it feels like it's arriving now.

There's a point every year where the change in weather starts showing up in the produce. Not just in what's available, but in how it eats.

Right now, eatability is outstanding, with a special call-out to asparagus, which is really coming into its stride.

But here's the thing: being "in season" and being worth eating today aren't always the same thing.

A calendar can tell you when asparagus season starts. It can't tell you how the asparagus that arrived at market this morning is eating.

That comes from tasting, buying, talking to growers and watching the seasons change year after year.

Our advice? Don't just order by the calendar. Order what's good.

And right now, there's a lot that's very, very good.

Monterosa Tomatoes are back 🍅

Four colours, one exceptional variety, and a long season ahead right through to May. The black is the richest, the red is the biggest seller, and all of them are absolutely stunning right now.

Corporate farming is not the future we want 🌱

When small, quality-focused family farms can no longer survive the tax burden of succession, the only thing left is big agriculture driven by shareholder returns. That's a food system nobody wins in.

The cost of growing is rising and it matters.

Fuel, fertiliser, freight and refrigeration aren't just farm expenses, they're the foundation of every price on every menu. With farm profits forecast to fall 39% in 26/27, the pressure on growers has never been greater.
