🍎 LOCAL APPLES. LOCAL PEOPLE. LOCAL STORIES. 🍎

One of the things we love most is working directly with local producers, and it doesn't get much more local than Glenbernie Orchard in Darkes Forest.

The Fahey family have been growing fruit at Glenbernie Orchard since 1939, making it one of the region's longest-running family farms and the last remaining commercial orchard in Darkes Forest. Over six generations they've been producing incredible fruit while championing local agriculture and sustainable farming.

Right now we're enjoying the best of the season with crisp Pink Lady apples and sweet Red Gala apples arriving fresh from the orchard.

But apples are only part of the story. We also stock their beautiful local honey, produced by bees feeding amongst the orchard blossoms, their award-winning apple cider vinegar, and of course their amazing apple juice – a true taste of the Illawarra.

Supporting local farmers means fresher produce, fewer food miles, and stronger local communities. We're proud to bring the fruits of Glenbernie Orchard to our shelves and help keep local food thriving.

Shop local. Eat seasonal. Support local producers.

We may have found the ultimate comfort food.
Southwest Barbecue in Appin are absolutely smoking it when it comes to flavour.

Their smoked brisket pies are next-level — slow smoked brisket, rich house-made gravy, buttery pastry and full barbecue flavour in every bite. And now… smoked brisket lasagna has entered the chat. Even better? Rom has made a gluten free version just for us.

These are the kinds of meals people come back for again and again. Bold, smoky, indulgent and honestly… life changing.

Locally made, packed with flavour, and perfect for cooler weather comfort food cravings.

Cooler weather calls for bigger flavours and bolder cheeses.

And you won't find many cheeses cooler than Pecorino Il Predicatore from Italy.

Made from rich sheep's milk and aged in oak barrels, this extraordinary Italian pecorino is coated in Tuscan Merlot grape marc, creating a cheese that's creamy, savoury and beautifully complex. Expect rich red wine aromas, fruity notes and a luscious texture that makes it a standout on any winter cheese board.

The dramatic purple rind tells the story of the Merlot grapes, while the paste inside delivers all the magic.

If you're looking for a unique artisan cheese to pair with red wine by the fire, this is it.

Available in store now for a limited time.
