Feijoa scooped and frozen. Price is $16 per Kg.
Available in Half. One. Two and Three Kg snap lock bags. As well as some 1kg plastic containers. (In total we still have over 100Kgs)
It takes approx. 2.3 Kgs of fruit off the tree to produce 1 kg of scooped fruit. So in effect $16 per kg of frozen equals less that $7 per Kg for the actual fruit.

The fruit is not registered organic but is totally spray free. All processing carried out in spotless and hygienic surrounds by myself and my wife, both of us having attended food hygiene courses.

We live in Tauranga and do not want to ship small amounts of frozen fruit nationwide. However, we travel quite frequently to Auckland, Rotorua, Hamilton areas and could possibly bring fruit through.

We are happy to deliver around Tauranga, or fruit to be picked up as long as prior arrangements are made. Call us on 0274964683

Price: $16
