Seasonal Update

As winter settles in, July brings some of the best-value and highest-quality produce of the year. Cooler conditions create ideal growing environments for many seasonal favourites, delivering better flavour, improved shelf life and more affordable pricing.

Fruit – Best Buys

This month’s standout fruits include:

• Citrus – especially Navel Oranges and Imperial Mandarins
• Kiwifruit
• Apples & Pears
• Rhubarb
• Quince

Citrus takes centre stage throughout July, reaching peak sweetness and juiciness.  Apples and pears also continue to offer excellent quality through carefully managed storage programs, making them ideal as everyday snacks.

Vegetables – What’s Good


July is the season for hearty vegetables, with root vegetables, potatoes and the cabbage family leading the way.
They’re ideal for creating warming meals such as soups, curries, braises and roasts while also providing a great base for meal preparation.
