LOCALLY GROWN APPLES...

Did you know, since we opened the Farmers Market in 2003, we’ve never sold an apple that wasn’t grown in WA!

Around the Easter Holidays we’ll have a variety of beautiful locally grown fruit including Buckeye Galas, Pink Lady, Fuji, Granny Smith, Bravo and Kanzi.

FINEST FRESH FISH… If you fancy some local fresh fish for the holidays, short of catching it yourself, it doesn’t get much fresher than the Farmers Market Seafood fridges!

FISH DAILY

There’s a selection of fresh WA whole fish & fillets available 7 days a week, plus an extensive range of RSPCA approved Huon Salmon.

Chocolate Raspberry & Coconut Rough INGREDIENTS

Easter-Berry Ice-Creams INGREDIENTS

½ cup dried cranberries

500g coconut OR plain greek yoghurt

1 cup frozen raspberries

½ cup BFM granola

Generous sprinkle of coconut flakes

½ cup frozen blueberries

2 tbsp raw cacao

½ cup frozen raspberries

½ cup coconut oil

DIRECTIONS

2 tsp vanilla extract 100g grass fed salted butter 2-3 tbsp organic maple syrup or raw honey (depending on your preference for sweetness)

DIRECTIONS

1. Place 1 tablespoon of yoghurt into each ice-cream silicone mould. Add a sprinkle of granola and a couple of blueberries and raspberries into each one.

2. Insert a paddle pop stick into each compartment, laying it down as flat as possible.

3. Fill each ice-cream mould to the top with yoghurt, covering the berries and the paddle pop stick.

1. L ine a medium sized baking tray with baking paper.

2. E venly distribute raspberries, cranberries and coconut flakes over the bottom of the tray.

3. I n a small pot, heat the coconut oil, butter, vanilla extract, maple syrup/honey and cacao until melted and mixed through.

4. P our chocolate mix over the top of the ingredients in the baking tray.

5. P lace baking tray in the freezer for 40 minutes, or until chocolate is set hard.

6. B reak into random sized pieces and serve as a delicious sweet chocolatey treat.

Optional

4. Add moulds to the freezer and freeze for 2 hours or overnight, until the ice-creams are frozen through and solid.

5. To serve, pop out of the moulds and allow to sit on a plate at room temperature for 2-3 minutes to soften before eating.

6. Popsicles will keep well if stored in an airtight container in the freezer.

Optional For coloured Ice-creams, blitz the raspberries and blueberries in a blender for 5 seconds, before adding to yoghurt. Mix through allowing the natural colour of the berries to colour the yoghurt.

If you want blue and red ice-creams, just blitz the raspberries and blueberries separately and add to 2 different bowls. Evenly distribute yoghurt between the 2 bowls before stirring through.

Add 1/3 cup of your favourite nuts, roughly chopped to the mix for a delicious crunchy texture. I like macadamias and pistachios.

YOU SUPPORT OVER 150 LOCAL

GROWERS, FARMERS & PRODUCERS… Every time you shop at the Farmers Market!

Did you know every dollar you spend at the Farmers Market helps support over 150 local growers with whom we’ve worked for over 15 years? And that’s true whether you actually buy their produce or not! That’s because whenever you shop here (and whatever you choose to buy) you’re supporting an independently owned business which supports not one grower, but an entire community of local growers, farmers & producers. Growers like the Omodeis and the Fahls featured below...

Omodei Orchard Apples…

Fruitico Grapes...

We’ve been sourcing our apples from The Omodeis in Manjimup for over a decade because we believe in the ongoing support of the local growers we’re so fortunate to have on our doorstep. The Omodeis have been growing superb fruit for a lifetime and what they don’t know about growing apples isn’t worth knowing!

Try their crisp, sweet Galas on your next visit to the Farmers Market and you’ll see what we mean.

Our delicious Fruitico grapes are grown in vineyards just south of Pinjarra. This is where owners Roger & Liz Fahl (and their team) spend time pruning, snipping and covering their grapes to optimise the size, quality and taste of their fruit. At Fruitico the grapes are harvested at the very moment their flavour peaks, which is why popular autumn crisp green grapes are like a "sweet, fragrant taste explosion in your mouth."
