Plump, new-season figs have arrived and are eating beautifully. Enjoy them fresh, paired with prosciutto and cheese, or baked into desserts.
Golden-fleshed Queensland Jap and Butternut pumpkins are a festive favourite. Roast and dice the flesh for salads, or bake a whole stuffed pumpkin for a show-stopping Christmas centrepiece.
Local sweetcorn is now in season and wonderfully fresh. Enjoy whole cobs simply boiled or barbecued, or slice off the kernels to toss through salads, fritters and salsas for a pop of sweetness and colour.
Boost the flavour of your festive dishes with fresh, aromatic herbs. Scatter thyme sprigs over roasted vegetables, fold sage and parsley through festive stuffings, or serve fragrant basil leaves with extra virgin olive oil, sliced heirloom tomatoes, burrata and black olives for an effortless summer side.
For the freshest salads, reach for tender soft-leaf lettuces such as Red Oak Leaf, Mignonette, Butter or Red Coral, all beautifully fresh. For extra crunch, larger heads like Cos or Iceberg lettuce are a great choice.
