Saturday 26th October is shaping up to be a BIG day at Beelarong. Not only will we be celebrating kids with a Children’s Open Day (check out our Facebook page), but our Artist in Residence will have her studio open and of course it’s Farmgate sale day – the penultimate of the year!  Come and join us between 9 and noon!

Were you lucky enough to pick up some Elderflower and Lemon Cordial last month?  It sold out quickly, but good news is that we have more available this month!  You just dilute it to your taste – somewhere between 1:5 or 1:10.

We also have Rosellas in Syrup again.  Perfect for popping into something bubbly – soda water, lemonade or even something stronger!

Looking for something for your toast?  Choose from Rosella Jam, Strawberry Jam, Mulberry Jam, Rhubarb and Apple Jam, Mandarin Jam, Mandarin Jam with Ginger, Jaboticaba and Apple Jam, Brazilian Cherry and Apple Jam, Chunky Pink Grapefruit Marmalade and small quantities of lots of other combinations.

Prefer something to go with cheese, meat or as an accompaniment to curry?  Take your pick!  We have spiced Apple Sauce (perfect with roast pork – think Christmas!), Rosella Chilli Chutney, Jaboticaba Chutney, Banana Date Chutney, Zucchini Pickle, Starfruit and Choko Chutney, Rosella and Starfruit Tangy Chutney, Tomato Relish, Sweet Mustard Pickle, Tangy Green Tomato Chutney, Chilli Jam (mild-medium), and Brinjal Pickle (eggplant).

Our standard 250ml jars are a bargain at $7.00 each, whilst our delicious Lemon Butter and Lemon Passionfruit Butter are $9.00.  You need to be early to grab these as we only have small quantities and they are very popular!

We’ll also have hand crafted items on sale (think Christmas presents), beautiful watercolour prints, and a selection of plants.  Hope to see you there!

Join us for our Children's Open Day on Saturday 26th October from 9am to 12pm. 

Join guided farm tours, meet our chickens, and learn about sustainable practices.

Children will have the opportunity to engage in hands-on activities, such as planting a seedling to take home or creating a craft using natural elements found on the farm. Face painting will also be available.

Parents can explore our Farmgate Sale, featuring homemade jams and preserves, crafts, and plants. They can also visit Rosella Cottage, where our artist-in-residence is showcasing her work.

This free event is made possible thanks to Children's Rights Queensland.

The citrus season has also been generous and you’ll find Orange Marmalade, a Chunky Citrus Marmalade with Ginger, Mandarin Jam, Lime and Ginger Marmalade, Tangy Cumquat Jam and a delicious Chunky Pink Grapefruit Marmalade.

It’s mulberry season so we have a Mulberry Jam and a Deluxe Mulberry Jam which includes farm-grown vanilla for an extra special touch.

And to wrap up the great selection, there’ll be Brazilian Cherry & Apple Jam, Strawberry Jam and Jaboticaba & Apple Jam. All for the unbelievable price of $7 for a 250g jar.

Prefer a chutney or pickle? We’ve got you covered. Not only do we have the old fashioned favourites of Sweet Mustard Pickle and Tomato Relish, we also have a range that you won’t find in your local supermarket. We’re talking about Rosella Chilli Chutney, Banana Date Chutney, Starfruit & Choko Chutney, Green Mango & Starfruit Chutney, Mango Chilli Chutney, Jaboticaba Chutney, Tangy Rosella & Starfruit Chutney, Brinjal Pickle and Zucchini Pickle, all of which go perfectly with a curry , or on a sandwich or with your favourite cheese . Whilst you’re at it, pick up a jar of Kasundi to use as a cooking sauce.

The early birds might snag a jar of Lemon Butter or Lemon Passionfruit Butter at $9.00 per jar. Some customers tell us that they can’t help themselves and just sit with a spoon and devour the jar in one sitting!

And remember, we reuse the jars, bonnets, string etc. – so bring them back with you when you come on Saturday!

Join Gardening Coach, Kate Wall, for this information packed workshop on Earth Repair Gardening. 

This workshop will cover multiple aspects of sustainable gardening with a focus on soil. We will explore different soil types, what these soil types mean for you the gardener, and how your activities impact the soil within your garden. 

We will learn how and why to improve soil, and the surprising ways we damage our soil without realising. We know great soil makes growing plants much easier, but did you also know the role of your soil in the bigger climate change picture?

Bring a jar of soil from your garden to learn more about it and so you can apply the learning to your own soil. You will leave fully prepared to create a carbon sink in your own backyard, so that you can become an Earth Repair Gardener.
Light refreshments will be served after the workshop. 

Cost: $20 per person. All welcome.
