Located at the historic 1920s Peters Ice Cream building at West Village, the Harris Farm Markets have created over 1800sqm of a custom-designed space to take food lovers on a flavour journey that shines the light on local food. The store’s fruit & veg section includes more than 500 lines including organic products, from the Locke Farm in Stanthorpe, through to Timmaz farms in Caboolture, as well as 3D farms in Bundaberg. Harris Farm’s includes their "Imperfect Picks” seasonal range of fruit and veg that might not look perfect from the outside but are as perfect and full of flavour as ever on the inside. The Imperfect Picks program helps reduce the fact that 25 per cent of Australian crops currently never leave the farm gate because they are a bit, well, unattractive, and do not meet the visual specifications of some supermarkets and consumers!
“Sustainability is a driver for our business, and we are thrilled to increase the footprint of our Imperfect Picks range here at West End, where we spotlight produce that didn’t make it past the beauty test that other supermarkets use!” said Harris. “Our program means every time someone buys an Imperfect Pick, they are helping us take more of the farmer’s crops and helping to reduce food wastage,” said Harris. Harris Farm Markets is a family owned and operated business. For more than 40 years Harris Farm Markets has been delivering goodness to Australian families with the core value and belief that Australian families should have the freshest and best available to them.
“Our West End flagship store will be home to the best in fruit and vegetables, including a huge organic fruit & veg section and a leaderboard of Queensland flavours, a gourmet grocery section of boutique local products, an extensive deli and offering of more than 500 cheeses, a local bakery section with the best breads such as sourdough and brioche from our Teneriffe mates Danny’s, and a premium meat selection,” said Tristan Harris. “Queensland is famed for the richness and range of produce grown across the state, and to be able to work with so many wonderful producers is one of our dreams.”
In a first for Harris Farm, four lines of Pour Your Own honey from Gold Coast produced BioSota will be available “on tap” at West End. Other highlights of the store include the Plant-based range of more than 150 plant-based products including Bite Me Fine Foods, Golden Falafel, Suzy Spoon, The Green Lion, Veglicious Kitchen and Wildly Good.
Cheese lovers can rejoice, with more than 500 cheeses, including a range of vegan and local stars Barambah, Woombye and Casa Motta among others. To top it off, Teneriffe’s famous Danny’s Bread, the artisan organic sourdough bakery, will have a counter, Danny’s Boulangerie. With so much on offer you’ll just have to make your way over the West End, and see for yourself!
