Orange tree blues – September 2013

Mick Auddino from Auddino’s Produce, a long time stallholder, is the subject of a short online documentary, Orange Tree Blues. This doco shares the powerful story about farming and Mick’s devastation at the loss of productive fruit trees due to a downturn in exports. Thankfully, Markets like ours are a good thing for farmers like Mick, and have assisted with sales. Mick says “buying direct from the farmers market is a fresher line of product…people are starting to wake up to it”. Mick is a true fair food pioneer and you can  check out the film here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyVS6qbdjBI Better still, come and visit Mick and Auddino’s with their quality home grown vegetables.
