‘Tis the season for Mandarins and Brussels Sprouts

 Brussels Sprouts grown by Capital Region Farmers Market stallholder Kurrawong OrganicsNot the two together of course! The Mandarins are in from Warrick Morris in Leeton and Auddino’s Produce in Wamoon, and are absolutely lovely. There are plenty of new season Imperials in at the Market and we are expecting to have mandarins, which really love the cold and frost, in different varieties from now right through until Christmas.

We’ve also got some Brussels Sprouts in from Kurrawong Organics in Kirkconnel, near Bathurst. This is another vegetable that loves the cold and actually thrives on the frost and snow and taste sweeter because of it.

Brussels are in season from now until September, and Kurrawong grow all of theirs organically with each plant harvested three times throughout the growing season.
