Pick of the Week - Limes
"This week, my guys have found an abundance of smaller sized premium limes about roughly 1/3 of last week's price.
It happens every year in mid-January. Lemons grown in Australia become very scarce during this month and in February and so we rely on the United States for supply as lemon consumption has grown dramatically in the last decade.
Mother Nature is clever because she then has limes in abundance to replace the lemons. All Australian, fantastic limes. They will be much cheaper than the imported lemons and even half the price of imperfect lemons over the next month. Don’t pay more than you need to substitute an Aussie lime for an imported lemon”.

Dave's Market Update
In Veg
“The rain last week from Victoria through to Qld has created temporary shortages of some veg with growers unable to harvest as normal. It was actually good news as it has replenished water supplies and after we catch up with harvesting all, we will have a very solid basis to move forward. So not lots on offer from the vegetable category this week.
From glasshouses which of course are unaffected by rain, we do have good specials on bunches of basil, a couple of good lines of Chinese vegetables, baby qukes and by the weekend, it seems hand- picked quality beans might well be on special as well as an excellent line of Roma tomatoes.
The sun is coming out today and I think all will be back to normal by the middle of next week.”
In Fruit
“A massive drop in the lime price is another result of last week’s rain. Many growers were unable to secure transport for limes to the southern markets, and this week we have seen last week’s and this week’s supply arriving together dragging the market down. That’s a good thing as the imports of USA lemons are in very high demand, leading to lemons being three times the lime price. In my house that means eat all Aussie lime not imported lemons.
All nectarines are great value, for my money, I am picking the large sized yellow fruit as the best value option. Peaches too are good and reasonable.
Demand for seedless melon eased due to the rain allowing us to run a very good special this weekend when the hot weather returns. Strawberries are great value as are avocados. Look for a red hot special on reeds this weekend, they are sensational to eat!”
