Two products. Two golds. Not a bad day at the office!! 🏆🏆

Stoked to share that our 100% Pure Lime Juice and 100% Pure Lemon Juice have both been awarded GOLD at the 2026 Outstanding Food Producer Awards.

Described by judges as:

“Vibrant, fresh and zingy. Judges love the natural flavour. Nice to have a great, natural, true product.” - 100% Pure Lime Juice and

“Bright, fresh, zingy. Good natural flavour, well preserved without compromising the authenticity of the fruit.” - 100% Pure Lemon Juice

It sure is moments like this that remind us why we do what we do. Grateful for the mahi, our crew have been putting in behind it all, and for you lot who keep us going.

Was awesome to host and kƍrero with Dr David Wilson (MP NZ First, and spokesperson for small business), Benita Cairns (Deputy Mayor of Wairoa), and Lewis Ratapu (CEO of Tātau Tātau o Te Wairoa) on Wednesday at the Limery.

Sent them off with a taste of what we do
 and if you’ve got a sharp eye, you might just spot a little sneak peek of what’s coming next 👀

We’re heading south for the Christchurch , and this year we’re parked up at Stand B17, right by the Cooking Theatre (strategic positioning if you ask us).

Whether you’re heading there to snack your way through, stock your pantry with the best of the local produce, or just in need of a yarn, Mark’s holding down the fort and would love to see some friendly faces!

Friday 27 March | 10–5
Saturday 28 March | 10–5
Sunday 29 March | 10–4

See you at B17 💛

Because two carrot cakes are better than one.

Especially when it’s fluffy, spiced just right, and topped with lemon cream cheese icing.

No one at afternoon tea is saying no to this.

We bet you’ve had lemon curd, but have you tried lime curd? đŸ‹â€đŸŸ©

Alright, we know what you’re thinking
lemon curd is elite, why mess with perfection?

Well, hear us out. While both lemons and limes sit in the citrus family, limes bring a brighter, punchier edge. It’s a little sharper, a little more zesty, with that subtle bittersweet twist that keeps you coming back for another spoonful. If you’re someone who always adds “just a bit more lemon,” this is your upgrade.

Just like the classic, it’s endlessly versatile. Spread it thick on warm toast or scones, swirl it through cupcakes, slather it over cake, serve it over vanilla ice cream
 or, if you’re feeling fancy, fold it through whipped cream and pipe it into choux for a little show-off moment.

Safe to say, lemon walked so lime could run. Find the full recipe online now.

Friday’s POV: you’re a lime tree getting a seaweed spa day. đŸšđŸ‹â€đŸŸ©

We treated the orchard to an aerial application of nutrient-rich seaweed, boosting soil microbial activity and helping our trees handle seasonal stress. It might’ve looked dramatic
 but it definitely delivered đŸ’â€â™€ïž

Crappy weather your way too? Call it the perfect excuse to slip into something comfy, serve up something spicyy and lock in for Hyundai Country Calendar at 7. đŸœđŸŒ§ïž

This Thai Seafood Laksa is exactly what days like this are for - a warming broth, silky noodles, fresh herbs and just the right hit of heat.

But the secret to taking it from great to epic? FINGER LIMES!!

Trust us, these bad boys are the ultimate laksa upgrade you didn’t know you needed.

New Year, same rule: don’t skip the garnish!

'Tis the season for finger limes, and these little pearls are the easiest way to make your summer spread feel a little bit special and look a lot more bougie. đŸ€Œ

Dropped in Champagne? Oui. Served with Oysters? Absolutely. Garnished over salads, seafood, avo toast, or your fav dessert? Don’t mind if we do.

Limited season, limited supply, so once they’re gone, they’re gone.

And that’s a wrap on another big year at The Limery! đŸ‹â€đŸŸ©đŸŽ

We’re pretty proud of what we’ve managed to pull off this year, from bringing home GOLD at the Outstanding Food Producer Awards, to heading up to Auckland as a team to celebrate the win and meeting so many awesome NZ brands doing the hard mahi too.

Add in working with brands and creators for new recipe/product collabs, launching our new website, seeing Charles Gillet shake things up on Breakfast with our lime juice, being interviewed by RNZ, a cracker season, food shows (and plenty of friendly faces), and finally ticking off the new storage shed
 yep, it’s been a big one!

To our small but mighty team, everyone who lent a hand along the way, and you, our supporters - as always, thank you 💚

Be merry, stay safe, and always say yes to that second helping of dessert 😉

From 'surf to turf' at the mouth of the river, Dianne Downey and her late husband Paul turned four hectares of coastal land into a gold-medal citrus operation. Taking home an OFPA Gold Medal for their The Limery 100% Pure Lime Juice, their product is "unadulterated and true to label"—a philosophy that hits home for our partner Leefield Station ; like their commitment to the Waihopai Valley, The Limery proves that when you listen to the land, flavour follows.
