24.01.2022 Check out these incredible Kale varieties that were supplied to us last night by Bruynen Farms. Just 2 of around 200 different kale species that he grows. Thanks Steve, keep up the great work!

24.01.2022 A warm welcome to our newest team member, Joe, here showing off our newest product line, Baby Broccoli While our baby broccoli is flying out the door, Joe is settling in and learning the ropes very quickly! If you’re yet to check out this popular new product I’m sure Joe will be happy to show you to our display!

23.01.2022 On Saturday, Jack and Jess visited one of our valuable suppliers @ Hawkes Farm Gate. It was a great afternoon! Richard and his team do an amazing job supplying freshly picked produce, direct to the public. It was wonderful to see he is also supporting other local growers and small businesses in his area, from free range eggs to olive oil soap! Richard Hawkes comes from a big family history of growers, so it’s no surprise he produces such high quality stock. With potato’s being his primary product line, you’d be crazy to miss an opportunity to try Hawkes Hot Chips, made fresh from premium select stock picked only metres away. There’s fun activities for the kids too, from strawberry picking to farm tours. It’s a great way to get the next generation interested in in farming and wholesale veg!

22.01.2022 Rapini is back and available at JJ Fresh! Also known as Rappa or Broccoli Rabe, this lesser known cruciferous vegetable resembles a very leafy broccolini with edible stalks, leaves and florets. With a slightly nutty and bitter taste you’ll most commonly see rapini served as a side, sautéed with garlic and olive oil. ... Easy to prepare and sure to be a hit, click the link below to learn how to prepare Rapini today. https://www.tasteloveandnourish.com/broccoli-rabe-rapini-w/

20.01.2022 ABC News with some sage advice! https://mobile.abc.net.au//coronavirus-drives-de/12054782

20.01.2022 Candy or target beets are both decorative and delicious Target beets are slightly sweeter than regular beetroot, and because they are picked young, they’re tender and ideal for use in salads without the need to cook them. Thinly sliced, their cross section reveals a pattern that beautifully decorates any dinner plate.

20.01.2022 Fresh oregano may be in short supply, but great alternatives can still be found! Marjoram is a fantastic substitute for oregano. Despite being slightly sweeter and less pungent than oregano, the two herbs share a similar flavour. Many chefs suggest using a ratio of 2:3 when substituting fresh oregano for fresh marjoram to balance the differing strengths of each herb. That is, for every 2 teaspoons of oregano use 3 teaspoons of marjoram. ... Check out the link below for a great list of oregano alternatives or ask a team member at JJ Fresh how to best use marjoram as an alternative for oregano! https://tastessence.com/oregano-substitute

14.01.2022 We’ve heard it before but there’s no denying the health benefits of Kale! Tuscan Kale, also known as Cavolo Nero, is among the most antioxidant-rich foods on Earth. The antioxidants found in this dark green leafy vegetable destroy free radicals in the body that would otherwise cause damage at a cellular level. Such damage may lead to a wide range of diseases and health problems, including but not limited to:... - Asthma - Macular degeneration - Diabetes - Heart disease - Thrombosis - Pre-mature aging of the skin - Alzheimer's disease, and - Rheumatoid arthritis Give Tuscan Kale a go this week; your body will thank you for it!

14.01.2022 Good morning Australia, I think as we saw the cafes and restaurants close at the start of this week the curve that has flattened is demand for fresh produce. M...any Australian growers will be affected this week, so remember to continue to spoil yourself and family with fresh food at home and if you can’t go out for dinner, let the Chef in you come out and cook amazing, nutritious dishes for your families. Australian growers have some of the best produce in the world and plenty of supply so spoil yourself by eating fresh and plate up! We are here to help!

11.01.2022 Winter is Coming!! ..and that means two things: - Game of Thrones is 5 days away - Salad Onions are almost finished for the season... With cooler weather coming on supply for white salad onions has declined. Don’t forget to order them earlier to avoid missing out!

09.01.2022 You asked.. We listened! EFTPOS is now available at JJ Fresh!! We’ve spent the last week ironing out the kinks and familiarising ourselves with the new equipment and are proud to say we are ready! ... Make your day that little bit more convenient; tap-and-go when you shop with JJ Fresh!

08.01.2022 Once upon a time, in a land far far away Dutch carrots were... purple? Well not so far away but it is true! This tale dates back to the 1500s when William the Orange led the Dutch to victory against the Spanish, winning their independence. ... At this time, the Dutch were primarily known to be carrot farmers. When a new strain of carrot was developed in the 17th century containing higher amounts of beta-carotene (the first orange carrot) the Dutch paid tribute to William and started growing the carrots we know today. The more traditional purple carrots are available at JJ Fresh.

08.01.2022 Congratulations to Ali from Fresh Gordon Market in Northcote, your are our birthday raffle winner! Enjoy your $500 stock prize!

07.01.2022 Our Red and Green Coral Lettuces are hydroponically grown specialty varieties that are sure to impress this season! With tight, crisp, frilly curls, coral lettuces add texture and visual flair to the simplest of salads. The leaf also makes a stunning burger or sandwich filling. Coral Lettuces are ideal for capturing more salad dressing than flatter leaf varieties so they pair well with lighter dressings and vinaigrettes.

07.01.2022 Far from the prettiest vegetable you’ll find at JJ Fresh, what Celeriac lacks in good looks it certainly makes up for in taste! Celeriac, sometimes called celery root, is known for its bizarre shape and subtle celery-like flavour. If you’ve never eaten celeriac before we couldn’t recommend a better time to try it! ... While it can be eaten raw, celeriac is commonly mashed like potatoes, roasted or used in soups and casseroles making it a perfect vegetable to enjoy before this winter’s end!

06.01.2022 Good to see our customers are thinking of everyone’s safety!!

04.01.2022 Happy Easter from the JJ Fresh Team!! To all our customers, suppliers and friends; we hope you have a safe and restful long weekend. See you all after the break!

03.01.2022 Spring onions and the winter months in Victoria are definitely not friends. The rain, hail and lack of sunshine reek havoc for all locally grown onions. But don’t panic! If quality is your primary concern JJ Fresh still has you covered! Queensland Spring Onions are in full swing and available everyday. Be sure to check them out before we sell out!

03.01.2022 Specialty lettuces are here to stay at JJ Fresh! Feedback on these gorgeous hydroponically grown lettuces has been overwhelming so we’ve sourced more!
