A cold hand thanks
This week the front rolling off the Southern Ocean delivered hard frosts and some of our coldest days in years. In this freezing week I think about the people bringing us our food and say a little thanks to their hands.
Following the money
Not everyone knows Fair Food is a social enterprise and that each year a hundred percent of our profits go to support CERES’ mission helping people fall in the love with the Earth. A couple of weeks ago we worked out that since Fair Food opened it had contributed over two million dollars towards this mission.
Circular citrus economy
Over the weekend you may have found a surprise lemon in your Fair Food box with an accompanying note. At CERES we love the Earth and we also love saving lemons (and food in general) from going to landfill.
Once in a hundred lifetimes
Last weekend while frying up a couple of eggs for his noodles our eldest son was surprised to crack open not a double-yoker, not a triple-yoker but a quadruple-yoker! We all thought this was a pretty special thing, however, at the time none of us had an inkling that what had just happened in our frypan was an astronomically unlikely event.
Schulz Five-O
Shout out to Schulz Organic Dairy in South West Victoria this year as they celebrate three generations of regenerative dairy farming.
The creek that defines us
Flowing out of the foothills of the Great Dividing Range the Merri Creek makes its way to Melbourne through the grasslands and into the Northern suburbs picking up Wallan Creek, Aitken Creek, Malcolm Creek, Merlynston Creek, Central Creek and Edgars Creek as it flows south.
