A fairly steady week at the market this week with no major price movements, but a few seasonal updates worth noting.
🫐 Blueberries — Finishing for the Season
This will likely be the last week for our local blueberries. Sad to see them go — they've been a favourite this season and fantastic eating.
If you've been enjoying them, this may be your last chance until next season.

☕ Coffee Update
Our favourite Arsosala Natural Ethiopia has gone up slightly in price due to global increases in coffee bean costs.
🌟 Looking Ahead
There's been a lot of discussion at the market around rising costs across the supply chain. At this stage nothing significant has flowed through into pricing, but wholesalers are expecting increases may come through at some point — they just don't know how much or when yet.
For now, this week's prices remain largely unchanged from last week.
A studio cheesery with a serious love of cheese. Handcrafted, Peninsula-made and absolutely worth discovering.
🥩 Meat Update
We're moving forward! The wheels are turning — ever so slowly — but we're getting there. We're working with a quality Mornington Peninsula butcher and formalising the supply agreements with the farm and abattoir.
Next week we're hoping to put a beef package option to you, and we may potentially have some lamb available — so watch this space.
This will be high quality, locally sourced meat priced between supermarket and butcher. More detail coming soon — thanks for your patience! 🙏
