Bringing the farmers market to your door

I interviewed the delightful Carla Penn on the FoodinFocus radio show who has recently launched the efarmersmarket.com.au

Not only is she as cute as a button and speaks like a speed racer she is very passionate about her business. A posse of young food enthusiasts set out around the country to corner the best in farmers market produce and bring it directly to your door. How very lucky we are!

Look out for the $150 hamper Giveaway coming this week!

10 things you need to know about the efarmersmarket.com.au

1. In an ideal world everyone would buy Australian owned and made products. Now through the efarmersmarket you can. All the produce is 100% made in Australia.

All products are Australian Made

2. With a range of 750 all-Australian products, eFarmersMarket carefully and individually selects every product that features on the website. Bring in posse of young travelling foodies.

3. The website works in the usual online shopping format, where customers can browse different categories and add items to their cart as they go along.

4. The website also allows shoppers to meet the producers, hear their story and truly know where their food comes from much better than reading the ingredients on the label and guessing.

These are very sexy moist brownies

5. A huge variety of products are available from an antipasto range through to chocolates and sweets, with sections specifically for organic and gluten free products.

6. Products are handmade – often with ingredients grown on their own farm or in their local town. All the products you find on eFarmersMarket are made in small batches by artisan producers. Some are so small they are not even able to open an account with Australia Post.

7. A Meal Box comes with a recipe card, products and a shopping list for additional ingredients required, such as meat and staples. Good food made very simple.

8. All orders are delivered within 48 hours.

9. All orders come with a flat delivery fee of $13 anywhere in Australia.

10. Products I tried and loved.
A) The brownies are delicious, moist, melt-in-the-mouth morsels.
B) The Dukah which is Asian inspired. Dip fresh bread into Lemon Myrtle Olive Oil and then into the Dukah for a Asian, Aussie twist.
C) Oh and don’t forget the hand made chocolates.
