Market conditions are challenging this week, with limited supplies driving up prices for popular produce like broccolini, green capsicum, lettuce, and zucchini.

Plus, enjoy exceptional quality and value on strawberries and blueberries!
Remember, these are just some highlights, and there's always a wide variety of fresh produce available at the market, with prices varying based on seasonality and availability. We encourage you to explore and discover new favourites!

Market conditions are challenging with seasonal produce scarce and quality compromised due to cold snap, and disrupting crops, especially in Far North Queensland. Despite the tough week, there's a silver lining: enjoy competitive prices on crisp apples and sweet mandarins, while lemon prices rebound. Warm up your menu and your customers with hearty root vegetables - the perfect antidote to the chilly weather.
