Newsletter - 8th October 2023

Happy weekend to you 🙂


Please make sure you buy your mangoes for our fundraiser soon! It will be open for another couple of weeks only. We rely on our fundraiser to help pay our overhead costs, including insurance, fees (banking, accounting software, website, shop, Consumer Affairs), and so much more.


We have some of our usual weekly and fortnightly orders open this week, as well as two orders that only open twice a year! There are product reviews relating to both of these orders - the links are in the order descriptions below.


Orders Permanently Open


A reminder that the following orders are always open and available for purchase:


  • Mango Fundraiser - this will be permanently open until mid to late October. More information can be found in the 2nd September Newsletter.

  • 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;

  • 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.



Orders Currently Open


The following orders are currently open (links open each order page):

  • GF Precinct - local, handmade gluten-free breads, wraps, dinner rolls, burger buns, pizza bases, bread crumbs and cakes, using locally-milled stone ground buckwheat and organic besan (chickpea) flours. Their products are preservative-free;

  • émotions - bamboo and recycled toilet paper, tissues and paper towels, including a range made in Melbourne (remember that if you have never tried their products before, you can buy samples (individual rolls) of the four different toilet paper types they offer at any time from Fills or from the émotions shop page). émotions is a Melbourne-based social enterprise, run by women and donating 50% of profits to mental health organisations;

  • Eggs - certified pastured, free range eggs, fresh from Thriving Foods Farm, an organic regenerative farm in Koo Wee Rup;

  • Dr B's BARF - biologically appropriate raw food for dogs and cats. This order opens monthly;

  • Olsson's Sea Salt - amazing sea salt from the Great Australian Bight, naturally evaporated by the sun, and with no chemical processes involved in its manufacture. This range features in a product review. Opens every 6 months; and

  • Nature Direct - 100% organic cleaning products and air revitalisers. Their concentrates are free from toxic chemicals, safe to use around children and pets, and incredibly effective. They never test on animals. The products are environmentally friendly, ethically created and economical. This range features in a product review. Opens every 6 months.



Temporary Change to Bass River Dairy Order


A reminder that the Bass River Dairy order will be open fortnightly for the foreseeable future. It will open in the same week as the other dairy and fridge/freezer goods suppliers (Blue Pumpkin and St David Dairy). It will open next Friday.


Please get in touch with any questions.


Have a lovely week and happy shopping!
