Well thanks!
Every week when I sit down to write this I wonder "Does anybody actually read it?" You most certainly do, last Saturday so many of you came up looking for our new seasons "intense" oil that we sold out! Don't panic, Esther will have more this week.
Did you know?
The two industry bodies we belong to (Olives NZ and Central Otago Olive Growers) will not allow the use of their certified mark unless the oil meets prescribed criteria for Extra Virgin Olive Oil. So why look for certified Extra Virgin Olive Oil? In recent tests in Australia, of the 27 European origin oils claiming to be extra virgin, 78% failed to meet the international standard for EVOO. One of the biggest "jokes" in the industry being: Despite being the worlds largest consumer of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Italy actually exports more oil claimed to be EVOO than the country produces!

Did you know we have made some sorbet from apricots grown on our orchard?
What is a sorbet?
A frozen dessert. These are dairy free and 43% apricots.
480ml tubs for you to take home, $8
Some of the comments we have had “amazing, delicious”
If you want a hot dessert then how about our apricot crumble.
These are 65% apricot, topped with an oat, coconut and almond crumble.
Weighing in at 1.2kg there is enough to feed 6 -8 people, $22
We gave a crumble to the hedge trimmer man this week and his comments were, “Apricot crumble is beautiful, nice to eat something out of a box with a bit of a story, wouldn’t have a problem recommending it”.
Waitaki Orchards stall is up on the platform, at the end by the railway crossing.
