19.01.2022 Memories! How things change over time. Eleven years ago we had early fruit. Here’s a lovely account of our event, at Baroque Bistro (no longer) in Sydney, by Helen Yee, Grab Your Fork : . Achacha. Try saying that out loud without shaking your hips. I first encountered achacha at the Eveleigh farmers market earlier this year. A native Amazonian fruit, the first commercial plantation outside of Bolivia commenced in Northern Queensland in 2002.... Achacha are a distant relative to the mangosteen and have a similar creamy sweet flesh with a slight sherbet tang. The modest crop late last year was limited to Sydney farmers markets, but the latest harvest will be introduced into fruit shops from next week, including Harris Farm, Thomas Dux and Norton Street Grocers. The fruit will also be made available in Brisbane, Melbourne, Hong Kong and Singapore. . The 2021 harvest is expected to commence in the 2nd half of January . . . #achacha #tropicalfruit #grabyourfork #foodblogger #therocks #earlyseason #lateseason #harvest #2021harvest

09.01.2022 Sunday! Exciting new book by ex commercial fisherman turned sea farmer growing variety of sea greens and shellfish on 20 acres! We’ve been talking about Regenerative Agriculture and now restorative aqua farming is here, adding to the movement. The potential of acqua farming is very exciting. Kelp absorbs micro ocean plastics and so much more. Sea minerals and fermented kelp are so important on this plantation. . . #regenerativeagriculture #restorativeaquafarming #coralreefs... #gbr #oceanplastics #solutions #abcblueprintforliving #books #marywhobookshop . .
