Market Update

Egg price dropMost fruits are reasonably priced, but the cold snap is creating havoc for many vegetables. On the brighter side: egg prices are coming down…slowly. This week, they’ve dropped by nearly 5% to $8.79 – and we’ve removed the customer limit altogether.
Quince new seasonApples and pears remain mostly well-priced, especially Fuji and Gala apples, and Josephine and Packham pears. Other good value fruit includes papaya, passionfruit, pineapples and kiwi – but watermelons have tightened up, and rockmelons are scarce as hen’s teeth.
In citrus, we’re sticking with Cara Cara as the better-value Navel – whilst in mandarins, Imperials are coming down (although at $3.84/kg, they have some way to go). Early season Murcotts – almost seedless – are still the better value. In other citrus, Ruby’s are cheap – but limes have tightened right up. New season Quince have arrived! Berries are slowly coming down in price, with more to come over the next few weeks.

In vegetables, things are looking a little ugly – courtesy of the cold spell that most of the eastern seaboard (including North Queensland) has been suffering for nearly 2 weeks now. Snow has been reported in the Tablelands and in the Blue Mountains.
Wombok and CauliflowerHowever, there are plenty of bright spots – including avocadoes for under $1, bean prices dropping (although still pricey), medium-sized wombok for $2.25, small cauliflowers for under $4, and red capsicum for $3.75 a kilo.

Potatoes, onions and pumpkins remain good value, but almost all leafy greens, leek, snowpeas, cucumbers and zucchini have gone up in price – some spectacularly such as zucchini, leek and silverbeet which have nearly doubled.
However, like most things, “this too shall pass”. Moussa is still predicting a glut, and if the Bureau is right – they’re still forecasting above average temperatures for the rest of June and July – Moussa might be right as well.

What Happens When Farmers Quit — And How Box Divvy Supports Them

One in 3 veg growers say they are considering quitting in the next yearDairy farmers are not the only ones doing it tough. Did you know that across Australia, 34% of vegetable farmers are considering leaving the industry within the next year?
Rising costs, shrinking returns, and pressure from supermarkets are forcing many small farmers to hang up their boots. When growers quit, fresh local food becomes harder to find, prices go up, and communities lose vital connections to where their food comes from.

Adding to the challenge, weather is hitting local growers hard. Unpredictable weather—droughts, floods, and heatwaves—makes farming riskier and less predictable. Crops can fail or produce less, while pests and diseases thrive in warmer conditions. These pressures increase costs and stress, sometimes forcing farmers to scale back or leave farming altogether.
For most communities, this means fewer fresh, local foods and rising prices.

Here’s the good news:
as part of the Box Divvy community, you’re helping change that story.
The Box Divvy community are supporting these farmers by directly purchasing their products, build resilience by encouraging more sustainable farming and providing a steady income. Then farmers have a chance at adapting to climate changes and growing the food we all rely on.

How We Work With Our Farmers

At Box Divvy, we don’t just deliver food — we build genuine partnerships with the farmers who grow your produce.

Here’s how we support them:

Fair pay & honest prices: We pay prices that reflect the true cost of growing fresh, seasonal food, not the rock-bottom rates supermarkets often impose. This helps farmers cover their costs and keep farming sustainably.
Collaborative seasonal planning: We work closely with growers throughout the year to plan crops based on what our community wants to eat. This reduces waste and means you get fresher, more delicious produce.

Sustainability & care:
We support farmers committed to environmentally friendly practices that protect soil, water, and pollinators — because healthy farms make healthier food.
Open communication: We stay connected with farmers, sharing challenges like weather or pests and working together to find solutions that keep your box full and farms thriving.

Why This Matters to You!

You might wonder if ethical eating fits your budget. The truth is, when you shop seasonally, support local growers, and reduce waste, you often save money compared to buying processed or imported food. Plus, you’re investing in a food system that values people, planet, and community.

Every Box Divvy order sends a powerful message to growers: “We see you, we value you, and we want you to keep growing.”

So next time you unpack your Box Divvy fresh fruit and veg, remember: it’s more than just food. It’s a lifeline for farmers, a boost for communities, and a way to eat ethically without breaking the bank.

Thank you for being part of this Unsupermarket movement!

Unsupermarket Podcast Episode 13

Each fortnight dynamic duo, Jayne and Leigh, delve into food topics buzzing around that affect your wallet, your health and your planet.

This week is National Pear Week! Pears don’t always get the attention they deserve. With changing consumer habits and increasing market pressures, many growers are doing it tough. Some historic orchards have already closed. Others are holding on – but just. Find out more at: https://nationalpearweek.com.au/

Selim from Shaholli Farms talks about his experience of a declining pear industry and the diversification required - from Shepparton, VIC which is one of the best pear-growing locations in Australia. Hubster Sarah is back to 'Whisk us Away' with a delicious upside-down Pear cake. Super easy to make and healthy! Find the recipe here.

What's New this week?

New products this week:
• Belicious OneMeal Stroganoff
• SPC Baked Beans
• DJ&A Snack range

So follow on and find out more. Let's start with Delicious OneMeal Stronganoff.
Belicious Stroganoff

Bel has been busy: this week, she’s introducing Belicious OneMeal Stroganoff. Traditionally made with prime beef, you can make a vegetarian version using mushrooms.

Here’s a quick and easy recipe:
• 1kg scotch fillet steak/rib eye, cut in thin strips
• 3 tbsp olive oil or more as needed for searing
• 1 onion, sliced
• 200g mushrooms, sliced
• 3 tbsp butter
• 3 tbsp flour
• Half cup milk
• 2 cups beef stock
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 3 tbsp tomato paste
• 300g sour cream
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tbsp yellow or wholegrain mustard
• 1 Sachet Belicious Stroganoff Spice Mix
• Half cup white wine
Massage salt, flour and Sachet of Belicious Stroganoff Spice Mix into the meat. Add oil to a hot pan and flash sear for 30 seconds, scattering beef in pan, in batches as needed, setting aside each batch, adding more oil to pan with each, do not overlap pieces. Once all removed, add butter and onions to same pan, cook until soft. Add mushrooms, cook for 2 min, remove all. Deglaze pan by throwing in wine while still hot. Add Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, mustard, stock and milk. Bring to a boil then add sour cream, stirring. Add beef, onion and mushroom mix, boil for 1 min until creamy.
Serve with mash or pasta and a green salad

Sachet Ingredients: Smoked Paprika, Red pepper, Oregano, Garlic, Onion, Thyme, Peppercorn, Bay leaf.

🌟 New Pantry Additions! 🌟

We’ve got some exciting new items hitting the shelves this week – perfect for lunchboxes, quick meals, or healthy snacking on the go!

🥫 SPC Baked Beans (Salt-Reduced)
With H2G Baked Beans still out of stock and no ETA in sight, we've turned to a trusted name – SPC. While not quite as nutrient-rich as H2G, these salt-reduced beans are still packed with dietary fibre and protein – and at a lower price ($2.69 vs $3.01). A great value swap!

🍄 DJ&A Veggie Snacks
We’re very excited about this one! From Shiitake Mushroom Crisps to Broccoli Florets, these crunchy veggie snacks are finally here.
Originally discovered nearly a year ago (and then forgotten – whoops!), Greg from Wingham picked the project back up and made it happen.
Perfect for lunchboxes or guilt-free snacking, they’re a fun way to get your veggies in – and we think you (and your kids!) will love them.

Come in and check them out – and let us know what you think! 👇
