We grow our own papaya, bananas, chocolate sapote, and other fruits. We also source fruit from the best tropical fruit growers in Northland, who share our values and commitments to Aotearoa Grown.

We pick when the fruit is ripening, to allow the best conditions for travel to you. Tropical fruits will continue to ripen on your kitchen bench, to ensure the freshest tastes for you.

Most of our fruit is spray free. Our bananas, papayas and pineapples are never sprayed. Some of our fruit, like avocados, are sprayed as part of a management programme. Our avocado grower is GAP certified to ensure the highest quality safety management of sprays and consumer health standards.

Because we grow with nature, and grow with aroha, our fruit is kissed by the sun and the wind. Sometimes it grows in some interesting shapes. We pick and pack with care, to ensure you’re getting the best fruit and the best taste. Rub marks from the plants leaves on the skin of the fruit does not alter the delicious taste of the fruit. It’s confirmation that it’s Aotearoa Grown, in our conditions – in our wind and sunshine.
