🍑 PRESERVE A MOMENT OF THE SEASONAL WHEEL WITH US 💚
There’s something deeply rewarding about preserving fruit.
Hands sticky with sun-warmed apricots, jars steaming gently, the kitchen smelling like summer should.
Our apricots are grown organically in rich, red Yarra Valley soil, picked ripe and full of flavour, the kind that beg to be bottled, shared, remembered.
Right now, they’re $8 a kilo in our produce store.
Perfect for preserving days, lazy afternoons with a fruit platter, or eating straight from the basket with juice running down your wrist.
🍯 SIMPLE FARMHOUSE BOTTLED APRICOTS
You’ll need
• Fresh organic apricots
• Sugar (optional)
• Water
• Clean glass jars with lids
Light syrup (our go-to):
2 cups water
½ cup sugar ( substitute with local honey )
Method
1. Wash apricots, cut in half and remove stones
2. Sterilise jars (hot oven or boiling water)
3. Bring syrup to a gentle simmer
4. Pack apricots cut-side down into hot jars
5. Cover with hot syrup, leaving 2cm headspace
6. Seal and water-bath for 15–20 minutes
7. Cool, label, and store away from the light
✨ Add vanilla bean, cinnamon or star anise for a spicy twist.
🌿 WHY PRESERVE?
Because food grown with care deserves to be honoured.
kitchen shelves lined with jars feels abundant when the season fades.
Because winter tastes better when summer is bottled!
