Market Choice Foods

Hi, after watching the news over the last few months and since we posted last, there is extensive press regarding the high prices charged by supermarkets for fruit and vegetable. We believe that the time is right to begin delivering fresh fruit and vegetables direct from the growers, without the rediculous markups the supermarkets are charging. To this end, we are are asking if you are still interested and based on your family's requirements, how much would you like to spend each fortnight for superior produce? From the feedback we receive, we will be able to offer you a choice of product and prices. Looking forward to your feedback.

THINK MOTHER'S DAY!

I have some hand-made candles left from a previous business. They are all made from high quality soy wax with a lovely wood wick, which sometimes crackles (like a real fire) when burning. The fragrance oil addition is to the maximum saturation that the soy wax will absorb without dangerous pools forming on the surface. They have been in storage but would love a new home. All candles come boxes. I've put up a few photos below.

We have four sizes: -

X Large 60-65 hour burn RRP $35:00 now $28:00
Large 45-50 hour burn RRP $32:70 now $25:70

Very happy

Our new weekly menu is open. Thanks everyone for being so patient while we've been sick with the flu. Still struggling with being very tired and also not being able to taste anything, but we are getting back in the saddle. If you have outstanding orders, these have already been taken into account, no need to reorder.
