What’s in Season – Asparagus

In this month's "What's in Season" spotlight, we turn our attention to a vegetable with one of the most distinctive shapes and characteristics in the plant kingdom, and one of the shortest growing seasons of the year: asparagus. At Market, our love for asparagus is undeniable. As it graces our stalls in spring, we can’t help but feel excited. With its incredible crunch and distinct flavour, asparagus proves itself as an exceptional addition to any dish.

What’s in Season – Honey

As Canberra’s winter drifts away and the first signs of spring emerge, one of nature's sweetest offerings makes its way to Market - honey. Our honeybees are wiggling their wings and waking up after a long winter, quickly getting to work to gather pollen from all the beautiful new spring blooms. At Market, we have a variety of incredible local beekeepers like Isabella 1822 and Martin’s Honey producing delicious honey for you to enjoy.
