25.01.2022 With all the delicious citrus available at the moment, it's been a busy day baking. Lime syrup and coconut cakes, Orange syrup and poppy seed cakes. Also available at tomorrows Greater Whitsunday Farmer's Markets, Whiskey Mandarin Marmalade, Cumquat Marmalade.

25.01.2022 In previous years I've supported the McGrath Foundation, either through raising funds by sponsoring High Teas or making batches of my special Christmas Jam. Dealing with my own breast cancer journey and supporting my mother through hers and not ever thinking we would need the breast care nurses here in Mackay, it's my little way of giving back. It makes an ideal gift or that special treat for Christmas day. Mini jams and gift packs will be available from tomorrow at the #greaterwhitsundayfarmersmarket #buylocalmackay #supportlocalmackay #mcgrathfoundation #breastcarenurses #homebaking #christmasgifts #mackaybusiness #jams

18.01.2022 Don't forget to get your cannoli tomorrow at the Greater Whitsunday Farmer's Markets. From 6.30 to 10am. Morning tea sorted. #greaterwhitsundayfarmersmarket #buylocalmackay #cannoli #freshisbest #loveitalianfood #dolcevita

18.01.2022 Option 1: Be a psychic and know what hubby wants for dinner and then to be told not what he wanted to eat. Option 2: Tell him what he is having for dinner and then to be told that's not what he wants OR Option 3: He gets the "I don't know" meal I like option 3

17.01.2022 Always wanting to make my life easier, hubby comes to the rescue with this little invention. One very good bread knife attached to a Milwaukee saw. Catch me at the Greater Whitsunday Farmer's Markets next Wednesday 23 Dec. Still time to place orders for Christmas Biscotti, Maltese Almond Biscuits, Macadamia bread, rum, apricot and cherry ripe balls. As well as traditional Christmas cakes.

16.01.2022 Something different this week for morning tea. Orange cake using our own citrus and for a little indulgence, a side of cream would be next level dessert.

04.01.2022 It was a pleasure in participating in this series of videos presented by the Greater Whitsunday Farmer's Network. Featuring local farmers, value adders and supporting businesses. Here is our story, the beginning, the now and into the future. John and I also would like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers and suppliers for their support throughout this year, have a wonderful Christmas with your family & friends and also wish you a safe and healthy 2021.

03.01.2022 Last week we had the pleasure of attending the Farm2Plate Exchange in Beaudesert.

John caught up with Matthew Evans, The Gourmet Farmer, one of the guest speakers.

01.01.2022 Did you know that I LOVE VINTAGE. It may seem just old stuff to my husband but I'm sure each piece has a story to tell. This love affair with a time gone bye has inspired me throughout my cooking journey. Show me a picture of your favourite vintage piece (selfies and pics of hubby not permitted). Like a bottle of wine we will age beautifully.

01.01.2022 In late June 2020, the network issued a media release telling the story of how we have recorded dramatic increases in retail sales at the weekly farmers' mark...et with foot traffic more than doubling since the coronavirus pandemic emerged back in March. Four months down the track these new patterns of behaviour seem to have stuck. Even on a rainy Wednesday morning, more than 700 shoppers came through the market and several stallholders sold out of produce. The Mackay Farmers' Market is such a beautiful showcase of our Members, what they stand for, their values and principles the desire to grow and create products to nourish people with wholesome seasonal goodness. The Network and Members’ love for agriculture, the earth, our heritage and the produce and products created and available in our region is what makes our Greater Whitsunday Food Network so amazing and viable in the long-term. By continuing to collaborate, plan for a more sustainable future, together we will become stronger, sustainable, and resilient. . . . #farmersmarket #agritourism #buylocal #freshproduce #provenance #artisan #homemade
