A highlight of my few days away at the Local is Lovely Pracshop in November was our trip to Epicurean Harvest in Blackheath. The amazing duo of Erika and Hayden have created a small market garden providing the freshest organic produce to top Sydney restaurants. It was wonderful to learn how they farm and produce their product – they also proved to be pretty good hand models for us!
Beautifully stacked wooden logs outside a rustic building always make me smile!
Yesterday marked the first official day of summer here in Australia and with it comes the arrival delicious stone fruit! Definitely my favourite time of year for so many reasons!
Another Friday has rolled around and this week it is one of sadness in our house after we lost our 4 beautiful chickens to a local sly fox. A reminder of the constant fragility that is the cycle of life. The past year with our girls has taught me so much about food, sustainability and giving back so I know we will bring home some new family members soon. For now I am grateful for the wonderful gifts they have left us in the constant supply of eggs left daily – a magic surprise every time you went to visit. The 3 dozen eggs we have been left with be eaten thoughtfully and with gratitude. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.
