We re-use as much packaging as we can, as many times as possible! One thing you might not realise we re-use is elastic bands. They’re super handy in our bulk section, as we use them to attach labels to jars, otherwise they can be used to bunch loose herbs and veg (or passed back onto our farmers, so that they can do the same). Just leave your elastic bands in your returnable delivery box (or collect a whole bunch of them and then send them back our way) 🥰 #reduce #reuse #recycle #reducereuserecycle #sustainableliving #sustainability #zerowaste #sustainabilityvictoria #rfg #realfoodgrocer

CHERRIES! 🍒🍒🍒 Aussie Cherry Season only

CHERRIES! 🍒🍒🍒 Aussie Cherry Season only lasts about 100 days, from late spring through summer. The majority of cherry crops are harvested during December & January. Rich in antioxidants, and with powerful anti-inflammatory properties, cherries pack a nutritional punch. They’re such a beloved, delicious fruit, so it’s important to make the most of their limited season. If you’re a cherry fan, stock up in the peak months, then pit and freeze them, ready to use in desserts or smoothies. #cherry #cherries #cherryseason #rfg #realfoodgrocer #seasonal #seasonalproduce #eatseasonal #eatlocal #localproduce #eatlocal #smallbusiness #vegansofmelbourne #vegansofig #jerf #wholefoods #healthyfood

Apples are one of the most popular items we sell.

Apples are one of the most popular items we sell. We stock over 10 different seasonal varieties of apples through the year. Marketing plays a huge role in which apple varieties are popular, and has a huge impact on farmers and growers. Orchard growers are in it for the long haul – they plant their fruit, and it takes years for them to profit. In contrast, it takes no time at all for major supermarkets to change their consumer’s minds about which variety of a particular fruit is the “best”. The people who planted these unpopular varieties then can’t sell them. This is why we love weird varieties. We don’t play favourites when it comes to apples. Our only requirement is that they’re Aussie grown, so you’ll see loads of different varieties in our store depending on seasonality and availability. We have sold literal tonnes of apples since the start of the year, saving them from heading to landfill. Our apples might be a little misshapen, or a little ‘imperfect’, but they still taste delicious to us! #apples #localfarmers #localbusiness #supportlocal #smallbusiness #melbourne #rfg #realfood #realfoodgrocer #vegansofmelbourne #jerf #wholefoods #fruit #eatlocal #eatseasonal #seasonalproduce

A-PEEL-ING TIPS: With our Cavendish bananas being

A-PEEL-ING TIPS: With our Cavendish bananas being one of this week's specials, we wanted to throw the spotlight on the very a-peel-ing fruit. Did you know that the banana peel is edible and using it can help reduce food waste? You better believe it! The peel is a high source of fibre that can be added to smoothies and even in your banana bread. 🍌 Keen to give it a try? For your smoothies, first, wash the peel, cut it into smaller pieces and add to the blender. For your banana bread, start by adding one peel. Before adding it to your batter, boil it down with some liquid to soften it. 👩‍🍳

For more banana tips, check out this article from ABC Life: https://ab.co/3f5vLUm

This year has brought some unique circumstances to

This year has brought some unique circumstances to all of our lives, but an added, unfortunate aspect of the pandemic has been that the war on waste has taken a back seat for many. The use of single-use plastics has sky rocketed in 2020 in the quest to increase safety and hygiene. So much has been out of our control. As we come into our ‘new normal’, it’s an exciting opportunity to get back to sustainable living. But where to start? By ordering with Real Food Grocer, we take care of so much of it for you! All our fresh fruit and veg are Australian grown - putting more dollars into the local economy, and reducing food miles (and the associated greenhouse gas emissions from food transportation). We are proud to be as close as possible to plastic-free. We deliver in re-usable cardboard boxes, we bag in paper when necessary, we provide glass jars for our bulk items, and we use compostable punnets (instead of plastic) when possible. And we source ‘farmers grade’ produce that is deemed ‘too ugly’ for the strict cosmetic standards that the supermarkets require. If we didn’t, this produce (despite being just as nutritious and delicious) would go to landfill, contributing to food waste, and greenhouse gas emissions. By making this one change in how you shop, you can make a huge change to your eco-footprint. #rfg #realfoodgrocer #zerowaste #plasticfree #sustainableliving #sustainability #sustainabilityvictoria #wholefoods #vegansofmelbourne #vegansofig #jerf #reducereuserecycle

We’ve also got Dench’s range of seasonal cookies, cakes, & crispbreads available (gluten free options). Plant-based eaters won’t want to miss our on our nut roasts by Field Roast, vegan salted caramel advent calendars by So Free, and The Vegan Dairy's pistachio & fruit nut cheese.

THANK YOU MEGAN: To show a little lockdown love, we sent over a Grocer’s Choice Box to the lovely Megan aka @veganinmelb packed with fresh and nutritious fruit and veg. Here’s what she had to say about us… (we’re still blushing! 🥰) "It was extra enjoyable knowing @realfoodgrocer also advocate for ‘ugly’ & oddly shaped fruit & veg that doesn’t make it to the supermarket, which tastes just as good if not better - since you know it’s being eaten instead of wasted!” #RFG #RealFoodGrocer

The packing team found a new RFG pet last week - Henry the snail! The team do try to pick out any slugs and bugs that hide in produce before packing them, but as veggies come from the earth, it’s an inevitable part of fresh produce. But this is a perfect reminder to WASH YOUR PRODUCE! It's so essential. Food is grown in dirt, and even your fridge at home is not sterile, so right before you use it, wash it. While your food might not have any creepy crawlies on it, bacteria that is invisible to the naked eye like lysteria only take 20 minutes to gather on produce like lettuce (so pre-washing in advanced isn’t the best food safety practice either). #foodsafety #rfg #realfoodgrocer #freshproduce #fruits #vegetables #melbourne #aussieproduce #jerf #realfood #wholefoods

Stone fruit is here! 😍🍑🍒🥭 While we love all fruit and veg, nothing gets us quite as excited as summer fruit. This week we have delicious Aussie nectarines and apricots in, as well as cherries and mangoes. Rich in Vitamin C, and a great source of fibre, stone fruits go well in both sweet and savoury dishes. For savoury think of adding some sliced stone fruit to your cheeseboards, platters, and salads, or for sweet we love them simply paired with yoghurt, ice cream, or slathered with nut butter. #stonefruit #summerfruit #summerproduce #eatseasonal #eatlocal #localproduce #seasonalproduce #rfg #realfoodgrocer #aussieproduce #australianproduce #jerf #wholefoods #realfood #fruit #vegansofmelbourne
