Happy weekend to you 🙂
Great news! The Mango Fundraiser is back, and after a bumper season, the prices are fantastic! A 7kg tray of mangoes is $28 this year! 7kg of mangoes is 14 to 21 mangoes, depending on their size, so the price per mango for spray-free mangoes from a regenerative farm is only $1.30 to $2 per mango depending on size. They are absolutely delicious. The fundraiser will continue until the end of October. The trays will be arriving in the week starting the 16th December. This year, we are doing it a little differently. As well as you ordering for family and friends, you can instead share the link to the Mango Fundraiser page with them, and they can order and pay for their trays themselves. They can also nominate if they want to collect the trays themselves, or have you collect on their behalf.
We have our usual weekly and fortnightly orders open this week, as well as five of our bimonthly orders, including a new supplier, Offaly Good Food. And remember we have a whole lot of items in Fills, including cheese, drink bottles, chocolate bars, hand-baked bites, seeds, shampoo and conditioner, and a new set of meal bases from Mingle. The bimonthly orders will be closing tomorrow night, along with the weekly and fortnightly orders.
Our new supplier, Offaly Good Food, produce their delicious range of nutrient dense and offaly good pâtés right here in Melbourne. Their focus is product quality, using mainly organic, local ingredients. They have a long shelf-life, and so we are opening the order every two months. This order is subject to fills.
The Best of the Bone order includes two new products - Organic Grass-Fed Beef Whole Bone Capsules and Organic Grass-Fed Beef Organ Capsules.
Also, a reminder that there are reviews for some products from orders that are currently open:
🌟 Also a reminder that the Bass River Dairies order is once again open weekly 🌟
Orders Permanently Open
A reminder that the following orders are always open and available for purchase (links open order page):
Mango Fundraiser - this will be permanently open until mid to late October. Absolutely delicious, spray-free mangoes from regenerative farming at a great price. We eat them fresh, dehydrate them and freeze them by the tray-full each year. YUM!
Cheeky Monkey - Heat bags made from 100% cotton fabric and thread, with removable, washable covers. They contain corn instead of wheat, making them suitable for people with wheat allergies. You can read more about them on the product pages;
Tomato Condiment Fundraiser - this will be open until the products run out.
Olive and Bee Intimate Cream - recommended by one of our members who has been using it for a couple of years. It has uses as a moisturiser and massage oil as well as a personal lubricant. It has two ingredients - olive oil and beeswax - and is Australian made and owned by a small business. We have some tester tubes coming soon. You can read more about it on the product page;
There are always items available in Fills. Fills are important because they let us buy items in bulk (by the carton) so we can continue to get big discounts, but items do need to keep moving through there to keep us financially viable 🙂 So if you need anything, or want to treat yourself to something (there’s always cheese!) head over and check out Fills.
