Sarah's Easy Overnight Oats

Craig's wife, Sarah, started making overnight oats as a response to the busy rush each morning trying to get everyone fed, dressed and out the door each morning.

In that first year we made a few dozen, which sold out immediately. There was so much demand that in 2024 we decided to have a crack at mass producing them. We took pre-orders for over 1000 individual fruits, and then got to work! It turned out to be a pretty arduous process, including a few late nights painting frui

Craig's Fermented Mango & Habanero Hot Sauce

We thought we'd share this one, considering we've recently sold over 800kg of Mangoes as part of our annual fundraiser! Craig always grabs 2 x 10kg boxes for the family which they enjoy fresh, dehydrated and in recipes like this.

It's same process used to make yoghurt, sauerkraut and kimchi (which Craig learned a lot about during hi
