Organic fresh fruit and vegies

Our supplier is one of the few who has a permit to buy produce from the wholesale market earlier than most, so she gets the pick of the crop and the quality is exceptional. Our supplies are in the shop early on Thursday morning – delicious bananas, apples, stone fruit, pumpkin, potatoes, tomatoes and green vegies. Organic fruit and vegies means you are not consuming dangerous chemicals and fertilisers. A little dearer, but well worth it.

Gluten-free products

We have recently extended our range of gluten-free products to cater for the many people who find they have a gluten intolerance. Our naturopath, Libby Shaw, has helped hundreds of customers over the past 12 years get their diets on track. Breakfast cereals, bread, biscuits, cakes – the range is extensive. Bread, dairy and vegetarian foods. Bakeries dedicated to making healthy breads supply daily to Nature’s Harvest. Sourdough, rice, millet, spelt, rye, wheat and gluten-free – there’s a bread for every taste. Our fridges also contain a wide range of milks, yoghurts, cheeses, dips, butter, tofu and appetising vegetarian foods.

Bulk packaging

Health food stores traditionally packed dried fruit and nuts, flours, rice and other grains from bulk supplies – but not any more. At Nature’s Harvest we continue this tradition. Customers find the product fresher and cheaper and it has become one of our store’s major growth areas.

Pure Victorian honey

Our apiarist has hives located in central Victoria, the Riverina and the Mallee. His family have been apiarists for more than 80 years, with five generations involved. All honey is strained at beehive temperature (not heat treated) to retain all the natural goodness of pollen, propolis and enzymes. Most of the hives are placed in forests away from mainstream agriculture, hence the honey is mostly organic although not certified. The range of varieties is extensive – Red Gum, Manuka, Stringybark, Ironbark, Desert Wildflower, Mallee Gums, Yellow Box, Grey Box, Banksia and many more.
