This Week’s Market Update — Seasonal Shifts & Looking Ahead to 2026

A few nice price movements this week, some exciting strawberry news, and a little look ahead at what we’re planning for 2026.

🥔 Potatoes & Veggie Updates

• Brushed Potatoes — down to $3.97/kg (great value)

• Peaches & Nectarines — 79¢ each

• Mushrooms — down to $1.19 / 100g

• Lebanese Cucumbers — up slightly this week as supply tightens

  
  

Nice to see some easing across core staples again.

🍓 Strawberries — Even Better This Week

The season of Albion Strawberries from Rocky Creek has arrived — and they are even tastier than what we’ve had so far.

If you bought strawberries last week, these are the ones you had.
Sweet, fragrant, and right in their prime.

🍇 What’s Coming Soon

• Plums & Grapes are appearing at the market
  We’ll add them once pricing settles and eating quality is where we want it to be — no rush until they’re good.

  
  

🔮 Looking Ahead to 2026 — What We’re Working Towards

🥩 Meat Trial (Coming Soon)

In 2026 we’ll be trialling a small ethical meat offering, starting with Provenir.

Why Provenir?

• Animals are processed on-farm, reducing stress

• 100% grass-fed Victorian beef

• Fully traceable and ethically raised

• Vacuum-sealed and food-safe, ready for distribution

We’re planning to start with two meat packs:

• $45 pack (entry option)

• $85 pack (family / premium option)

More details coming next week once we finalise pack contents.

🔪 Pre-Cut Produce (Starting Next Week)

From next week we’ll begin offering:

• Cut Watermelon

• Cut Pumpkin

• Cut Broccoli

• Cut Cauliflower

These will be prepared safely and packaged to make cooking and summer eating easier.

🌱 A Word on Growth

As we head into 2026, we’re really looking forward to a year of growth and consolidation.

Our goal is to reach 165 weekly orders by June–July 2026 — this is the number that allows Jointly to operate as a sustainable, long-term business, supporting growers, hubs, and the wider community.

If you’re someone who prays — we’d really appreciate your prayers for this.
Thank you for being part of the journey.

💚 Thank You

As always, thanks for supporting local growers, makers, and this community.
We’ll keep doing our best to bring you great quality, fair pricing, and transparency every step of the way.

💚 Jointly Nourish Update

It’s exciting to see more families choosing fresh fruit and veggies — healthy really is catching on, and that’s great news for everyone involved.

If you know of anyone in your Hub community who’s doing it tough or could use a hand, please let us know. We’re always happy to have part of our 5 % giving allocation directed locally through you.

Thanks to your continued support, we were able to share $339worth of fresh produce (at cost) with local organisations doing amazing work — including $90 donated directly by our Jointly community. 🙌

Here’s where the produce went this week:

• Mornington Community Centre (CCI is closed)

• Somerville families in need via the Somerville hub (St Andrews Anglican Church)

  
  

Each box is more than just food — it’s a reminder that our community is stronger when we look after one another.

Thank you for making Nourish possible 💛
