Apples for sale
Hi everyone,
My little 11 year-old sister and I have some freshly-picked, pesticide-free ballarat apples off our trees that we would like to sell to earn some pocket money. These apples are lovely in apple baking or lightly stewed with a little bit of sugar.
We noticed that the local supermarket are selling these at $5.40/2kg so we will sell them in 2kg bags for $4 or $5 if your feeling generous.
Covid-19 safety precautions:
Wash produce with soap and water. Because COVID-19 is from a family of viruses very likely deactivated by contact with soap and water, washing your fruit and vegetables with soap and water should eliminate any live virus.
For hard-skinned produce, scrub skins or peels with a soft-bristled vegetable brush, using dish or hand soap and warm water. For other types of produce, including leafy greens, soak in soapy water for 10 to 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
Please PM me or email me at haydenthemonkey@gmail.com for more info. Thanks
