Are you sick of throwing out fruit and veg from the supermarket after 2 days? Join your local Box Divvy hub for the freshest fruit and veg in Lake Mac. There are hubs in most suburbs.

Unlike the supermarkets, Box Divvy is a 'picked just in time' model so rather than being weeks old, the produce is farm fresh.

There's heaps of other benefits too like cheaper produce, zero waste, giving growers a fairer deal, ensuring our food security.

This rainy wet weather is calling for some soup! Try this mild chorizo from the chilled section, sautee chopped yellow onion and celery, add in garlic and some seasonal veggies (I used celery& carrots), some fresh thyme, add beef broth, heaped tbps tomato paste, a cup of pasta, tin of white navy beans. Simmer soup till veggies are soft and pasta is cooked. Season with salt&pepper. Voila, you have a comforting bowl of delicios soup! The kids asked for seconds!

Today we celebrate International Women’s Day and the incredible women who make up our Box Divvy community.

Our Hubsters, mostly women but we have wonderful men taking up the call for change too, are more than organisers of good food. They are community builders, change makers, and champions of Australian farmers.

Many of you are women who have stepped up to create food communities right in your neighbourhoods, bringing people together around fresh, affordable produce.

You’re making real change every single week by:
• Building stronger neighbourhood connections
• Making fresh, healthy food more accessible to families
• Supporting Australian farming families to keep doing what they do best, growing food and food wholesalers who feed our nation
• Leading with generosity, care and purpose
• Lifting each other up and showing what collaboration looks like

Being part of this network means knowing you’re never doing it alone. You’re one of many passionate women who believe food can bring people together and that small local actions can create big collective impact.

Today we celebrate the leadership, resilience and heart that you bring to your hubs and your communities.

We’re incredibly proud to stand alongside so many inspiring women who are helping grow something bigger than all of us.
Happy International Women’s Day to our amazing Box Divvy Hubsters.

Thank you for the difference you make.

🍅 Tomatoes - what do you do with them?

Tomatoes ripen quickly and don’t always give much warning.

Fact: unripe tomatoes are best kept at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.

A quick check of the fruit bowl can help stop good tomatoes ending up in the bin.

Make sure tomatoes are stored separately from ethylene-sensitive produce like leafy greens, potatoes, broccoli, carrots, and cucumbers.
