Specials boxes available now
Our Certified Organic Amber Jewel plums are a gorgeous yellow flesh plum with a ‘diamond’ shape. They are sweet and have a firm, almost ‘crispy’ texture. They make a delicious country wine (see here for method) or to make a mead simply replace the sugar with honey.
Queensland Fruit Fly alert
Queensland Fruit Fly has been spotted on the farm. Please notify us if you receive any affected fruit and we will replace it. If you find any affected fruit that you bought from us, please advise us ASAP. You can use the contact form on our website, send a text message or find us at the Castlemaine or Coburg Farmers Markets.
Plum boxes available
Angelina plums and Mariposa blood plums are now available for pre-order. Collection from Castlemaine or Coburg Farmers Markets Wednesday/Saturday respectively. Our certified organic Mariposa blood plums make an excellent jam that sets well and a wonderful sweet/savoury plum sauce, similar to tomato sauce (our ‘Blood Sauce’ is made from Mariposa ‘3rds’!).
Established orchard business available for you!
As some of you may have heard from Grow Great Fruit (who established and maintained the orchard prior to me) I have chosen not to renew my lease at the end of this financial year. What that means is that the orchard, all it’s associated infrastructure and machinery and the business are being made available.
Apricots, plums and sour cherries on specials for Coburg and C’Maine markets.
We have boxes of apricot ‘seconds’ and plums available for order online. Also available are our specialty ‘Morello’ sour cherry. They are a very small cherry with a sour flavour
