Feijoas
Feijoa scooped and frozen. Price is $15 per Kg.
Available in Half. One. Two and Three Kg snap lock bags. As well as some 1kg plastic containers. (In total we still have over 100Kgs)
It takes approx. 2.3 Kgs of fruit off the tree to produce 1 kg of scooped fruit. So, in effect $15 per kg of frozen equals less than $7 per Kg for the actual fruit.
The fruit is not registered organic but is totally spray free. All processing carried out in spotless and hygienic surrounds by myself and my wife, both of us having attended food hygiene courses.
We live in Tauranga and do not want to ship small amounts of frozen fruit nationwide. For 2 or more kg orders we will deliver free in Tauranga area.
We are happy for fruit to be picked up as long as prior arrangements are made. Call us on 0274964683

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
