From Monday we have made the move to go label-less on our individual products! For the planet, for seasonality of produce, for menu changes and to keep costs affordable for us, you and your families.

Inspired by Kate at Holism Health (thank you!). You can now find a code on each product and a QR code on the card in your box. Scanning the QR code will take you to a page on our website that has product info, nutrition info and preparation instructions for every menu item. You can also view all the info you need on the individual product pages when you fill your cart.

Even though we will miss the mothership colour pallet when you open your box, we feel really positive about the long term sustainability of this decision. Any questions? Comment them below.

Meet our newest menu item; our Creamy Sweet Potato Bake. Layers of cheesy sweet potato sauce, organic pasta, sourdough breadcrumbs (used from left over bread from ) and loaded with the best spinach and sage from Adele's garden (thank you .hill). Our new go-to vegetarian dish, made just for you.

Orders are now open for our next delivery date, Monday 7th of November.

Meet our newest Mothership Kitchen meal, our Chicken Kale Pot Pie, a collaboration with our friends Poolish and Co who make the most melt in your mouth buttery pastry.

This is fresh and light comfort food with spring veggies, ethical sourced chicken and a cheesy base.

Available now in our packs and to add on through the website. Orders close on Wednesday for delivery next Monday (17th) 🥧

We’ve been busy! Busy in the Mothership Kitchen. We are so excited to bring to you a full range of kitchen items to stock your pantry and freezer. You can now shop frozen meals, dry goods and yes, there’s now frozen cookie dough or let us pick for you in one of our pre selected packs.

We started with a focus on postpartum,but we’ve expanded offering to support everyone in our community. Think of us as your home-grown, home-cooked, nutritious and local meal delivery service.

We exist for those who want to save time cooking, be able to pull something nourishing out of the freezer, for new parents, families, busy working days, for those moving through grief, those on their cycle…..for everyone.

Our range will grow in the coming months but have a look at our new items and send us a message if you have any questions in regards to ordering, our updated website or menu items.

It’s a busy busy time! And I couldn’t do what I do without awesome backup like the amazing Laura Tilley, Hobart Doula, at Our Mothership. Thank you for my beautifully nourishing gift 🥰 a lovely surprise!

After taking a pause for a couple of weeks after some rocky times, practicing what we preach; family before business, only take on what we have capacity for, energy expenditure and values are aligned and above all care and love is always number one. We thank you for your understanding and patience.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We've made the decision to move our main meals to frozen, and you'll receive a half fresh, half frozen pack. This allows us the capacity to maximise/find balance in our time in the kitchen and, feed more of you!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Quality stays the same, beautiful fresh and local produce stays the same, taste is still amazing - just with the added benefit of making your freezer feel full and abundant, the ability for it to keep for longer and the ease of popping it in the fridge in the morning to eat whenever you're ready
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You'll still receive everything else fresh; warm Pumpkin Loaf or Banana Bread, chai cookies, our drinks and of course a freshly baked loaf of sourdough.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you have any questions, let us know but we are really looking forward to nourishing you and your families in a way that supports us, and we hope you too.

Love and big hugs,
Laura and Lily

Here's one of our main options in our current menu; roasted cauliflower, chickpeas in a mild cashew curry sauce.

Serve as an abundant bowl with rice, extra greens, added protein (great with roast chicken!) and any herbs you have on hand.

Suitable for the little hands (being mindful of the inclusion of one of the top allergens; cashews) in a smaller bowl or scooped out of your own; spoon optional and definitely not essential. 🥘

And what a lovely community we have here in Tassie!

SLOW COOKED BROTHY BEANS

Our current seasonal soups is melt-in-your-mouth brothy butter beans. The beans are soaked for 24hrs to breakdown the phytic acid, making them easier to digest and the nutrients of the whole meal more bioavailable to the body.

They are then slow cooked for 10hrs in garlic, lemon and thyme infused Gevity Rx bone broth. By cooking it low and slow, these buttery beans turn into creamy deliciousness and out comes a fragrant, warming and comforting bowl of soup.

Perfect for adding extra protein like eggs, meatballs or sausages. And always served with a side of generously buttered sourdough bread.

Included in our current Full Feed Pack, this meal is easy and gentle on digestion, perfect for healing/recovering bodies.

Food that feels like family, that's why we are here. Thank you Julie ☺️

Orders are now open for July!

Love and Big Hugs, Laura and Lily x

Kind words for our Full Feed pack, thank you, from the bottom of our two hearts.

April is Cesarean Awareness Month and we wanted to share a few ways you can support your own friends and family 🌸

Nourishing food — Slow cooked, hot and easily digestible meals are the best way to nourish a new Mum post c-section and is a wonderful tool to help kick start the natural healing process. Having friends or family drop deeply nourishing foods via a meal train or similar not only helps promote healing but also increases energy, supports lactation and helps to rebalance hormones.

Ample hydration — one of our fav postpartum products we ALWAYS recommend to everyone is a stainless steel drink bottle with straw attachment for ease of drinking. Hydration is especially important post c-section as it aids in flushing anaesthetic from the body, reducing swelling, encourages milk supply and reduces risk of constipation.

Emotional support — Whether it was a planned and empowered or emergency, it’s always really important to speak about birth experiences and unpack them with someone you trust to fully feel and process a huge life experience.

Breastfeeding support — For the first 6 weeks after birth, your ability to easily and safely hop in and out of bed, a chair or the car will be hindered while you heal. Setting up a nursing station that has everything you and your baby may need (snacks, water, book, phone, nappies, wipes, burp cloth), is a great way to minimise the need to get up and down. Have a partner or family member to assist you in passing you the baby once comfy and offering an arm to lean on when getting up and down to minimise stress on your abdomen and wound site.

Full Feed Pack orders are open for delivery April 25th! (And May if you are planning ahead) If you've been on an extended Easter break and just cannot think about cooking, or are in the middle of a busy school holidays, we've got you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Featuring local produce, we celebrate and support our friends, family and growers as much as possible with this pack and features generous lunch, dinner, breakfast, snack options to nourish and support you during a mountain moment in your life.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This pack includes; a loaf of banana bread, 1L of Wendy's Minestrone, Bircher Muesli, Liquid Love, Kitchari or Slow Cooked Wallaby Curry, Chai Spiced Cookies, Homecoming Chai Brew and a loaf of Poolish and Co bread.

Plus - an extra special addition to our April orders, a beautiful bunch of blooms from local mama Adele and her abundant garden. 🌿

With an overwhelming amount COVID rocking our community at present, we are gifting kitchari to families who need support right now.

Kitchari is a traditional Ayurvedic meal great, a great staple to gently support and balance the body, especially during seasons of illness or when giving energy to support others.

Hobart and surrounds, we have 8 packs of kitchari (x4 servings in each) to gift to those who need it most. So many people are in isolation sick grandparents, families with kids, single mums, single dad's. With school holidays looming, isolation at home with your kids while helping may seem like a daunting task, let us hold you.

It doesn't need to just be for a mother with a newborn, if you're a family and you need support, with toddlers, teenagers - if you're feeling under the weather in any way, we've got you.

First 8 people to message the packs are yours, or you can claim them for a friend. Feel free to comment below some friends who might need the extra love in food form.

Big love and warm hugs xx

How lucky are we! For the month of April the beautiful Adele from .hill has gifted all receiving mamas, families, lovely humans of our Full Feed packs a small bunch of blooms picked from her garden.

"It's a garden that has been my medicine as a mother. A medicine for my eyes and heart through all that motherhood has bought alone. This garden has taught me all I need to know about the seasons of life, the cycles, the ups and downs, the successes and failures, all in the most caring and graceful way"

A little bit of beauty for your eyes and heart to go with nourishment of your belly. Our delivery dates for our Full Feed pack in April are Monday 4th and Monday 25th

The Full Feed package has been designed with the postpartum season in mind (which is forever!) but is also just a lovely gift for anyone who's had a tough week, is moving through loss, doesn't have the energy to cook but wants some nutritious food in their fridge, to get you through a period of isolation, the week of your cycle or for yourself just because you deserve it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Eat in bed, from the couch, out in the sunshine or grab a cookie to pop in the pram while you walk. We've got you.

Orders close soon for deliveries Monday 21st of March.

On Monday we delivered our first Full Feed packs to some special customers. From an idea back in September last year to bringing it to life today feels surreal. Cooking with local produce, delivering it to families in time for Monday night dinner, writing out your love notes...a huge, big full day filled to the brim with love.

A little recap in our stories, thank you for receiving us with open arms and hungry bellies.

Our Mothership has officially landed ❤️

It's cookie delivery day on Monday!

Orders in by 10pm Sunday and Monday afternoon you'll have a fresh bag of cookies at your doorstep. We deliver between Cygnet and Carlton River. If you're not sure if you are in the zone, just reach out.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you can see those sneaky other items in the background, take note....they are coming soon!

Yes there are the foods that are key to postpartum nourishment like broths, soups, high fat, dates, nut butter, energy dense - but there’s also food that we love eating and makes you feel really great! Variety is the spice of life and when it comes to food it's about balance; food that nourishes and makes you FEEL happy, for us it’s a croissant from Pigeon Whole Bakery an ice-cream or chocolate (chocolate covered goji berries we're looking at you).

Listening and honouring what your body craves is the biggest and most important message we can send, and sometimes that means going chocolate for dinner and midnight snack- although not highly recommended Lil can confirm there were multiple nights in those blurry postpartum day/nights where her jar of granola clusters and block of chocolate were all her mind and body could fathom eat. And that this is totally okay! Embrace all that your body is and wants, it's your vessel and honour in all ways.

sharing chai cookies with Arthur 🧡

Don't forget to get your cookie orders in by 10pm Sunday for Monday deliveries! We back these fresh on a Monday, package them up and will be on your doorstep Monday afternoon ready to be enjoyed with a cuppa once your little ones are in bed (or before to get you through the crazy hrs pre bed time 🤪).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rolled in sesame and fennel seeds, they are deliciously crunchy on the outside and melt in your mouth soft on the inside. Naturally sweetened with date and backstrap molasses, these are good for anyone big or small.

During childbirth, the mother carries out a tremendous amount of physical work with a significant movement of downward energy (which can cause fatigue, dryness, coldness) and if she is not cared for, this energy depletion can create anxiety, overwhelm, depression and hypersensitivity. The sacred window is time for a newborn mother to be nourished so that she can care and offer life to her new baby. This time involves deep rest, bonding and rejuvenation.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
‘The first 40 days will impact the next 40 years to come’
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ayurveda states that it takes around 40 days for all of the body to heal and rejuvenate, and establish a grounding foundation of health for the next 40 years to come. For most of people though, 40 days is not enough, and although we believe that the first 40 days are key to getting started, the postpartum period is FOREVER.

We have some exciting news! Our purpose with Mothership has always been to nourish, but we've been taking it gently launching with our cookies and tea first. We wanted to make sure we are building these offerings with you (because they are for you!) and always coming back to our values: slow, intentional, deliberate.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So with that in mind, we are finally channelling our energy to our food packs launching early this year but we want to know — what do you want to eat? What foods would you like to support you during your motherhood season? Remembering that postpartum is forever and you deserve to be nourished forever. We will collaborate and entwine our postpartum nutrition knowledge to create something deeply nourishing together.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Write us a comment below and head to our Instagram stories to have a look at some of the meals we are thinking about for the menu! Here's one of our first weekends together we spent cooking, chatting, dreaming and styling, bringing our vision to life

A little hello and welcome to the New Year, for those who don't know us yet, we are Laura & Lily and we started Our Mothership to support our community through the postpartum period, inclusive of birth, loss and includes the full experience of motherhood (forever!)

Laura is an Ayurvedic postpartum doula and meditation teacher. With a forever-love of being of service, supporting and holding being a doula connected with her after teaching mothers to meditate and seeing the profound impact it had on their experience. Laura provides treatments, rituals and support for new mothers and is currently immersed in her birth doula training.

Lily is a Mother and Postpartum and Infant Nutrition Consultant. Her passion for postpartum nutrition came after giving birth to her first son, Arthur and realising the lack of information and support in this area in Tasmania. She’s a creator of experiences and great food, with love for caring and supporting other mothers and small businesses.

🧡 We reconnected after years apart this year and very quickly discovered we have many things in common - our combined passion is hugging and holding mothers, humans and those who need support to empower you through this powerful-life-changing-heart-exploding season of motherhood.

Thank you for your support, it's an honour to serve you in this way and we are looking forward to nourishing you this year.

Love and big hugs,
Laura and Lily xx

If we could capture the look of satisfaction when eating one of our freshly baked cookies in one shot this would be it. Arthur now knows what the cookies look like in dough form and when cooked and isn't shy of demanding one, quality control in its finest.

Our orders close for our final delivery before Christmas this Sunday for delivery Monday 20th! We will be taking a little bit of time off (for some exciting extensions brewing, more on this soon) so it's your last chance to order for loved ones, best friends, family, friends, or even better, yourself for 2021.

Thank you for supporting a small family run business this Christmas, we are incredibly grateful.

Love and big hugs,
Laura, Lily and Arthur x

Looking after Mother Earth is incredibly important to us, the mother of all mothers. She always shows us her strength, determination and softness. She is boundless. She cannot be put in a box. She reminds us who's in charge here.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In heartache, love and loss we always come back to connect with her, whether that's walking through Lily's backyard through the paddocks and next to the river, or on the beach at Laura's place.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our priority and intention as much as we can is to source local ingredients and we will be sharing more of the stories behind them as well as using recycled or compostable packaging where we can (you might have different sized jars in your packs!).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Without her, there is no us and we will forever be in service to her.

ORDERS ARE OPEN + a little addition 🌼

Welcome to Our Mothership, holistic postpartum care to support, nourish and love you throughout the mountain moments of your life.

We aim to use this platform to facilitate conversation and discussions around motherhood, pregnancy, postpartum, miscarriage, loss and the interconnectedness and pieces between them all. Our skills as a doula and nutrition consultant will be used to support you, through packages of food and love, nutritional guidance and doula care.

Throughout our own experiences we have felt and held others through tender times and learnt that something needs to change and shift. We can’t keep hustling, putting pressure on ourselves to get back out into the world, to not celebrate this precious season. More slow moments, more gentle moments and more community.

This is our intention, Our Mothership was made for you, it's for us. We hope as always this space may grow, evolve and change to suit your needs and as we navigate these moments together.

We appreciate your patience and enthusiasm about our offerings, and to gently launch Our Mothership out into the world we will be releasing our first product tomorrow!

Love and big hugs,
Laura & Lily

We acknowledge the ancient history of the Tasmanian Aboriginal people as the First People of lutruwita/Tasmania. For over 2,000 generations, Tasmanian Aboriginal people’s culture has been and continues to be based on a deep and continuous connection to family, community, land, sea and waterways. This always was, and always will be Aboriginal Land. We are grateful to the palawa/pakana community for their ongoing connection and caretaking of country.

We also acknowledge the ancient lineage of birth and postpartum wisdom which has been passed down from generation to generation through storytelling, culture and ancestry. We draw on this knowledge to help educate, guide and deepen our offerings of care and always hold space for continuous learning in our practice.
