It’s Always Better When It’s “Fresh from the Farm”

From Our Farm to Your Door, It’s Fresh from the Farm!

Limpopo is one of the best places in the country to savour the divine flavour of a ripe avocado and buttery macdamia nuts. Flavours of local, seasonal produce delight and enchant your senses with vibrant colours and delicious scents. The world becomes an enchanted place when food is shared and you can bring Limpopo right to your doorstep with Fresh from the Farm based on Boschoek Farm.

Founder, Susannah Cole-Hamilton explains how it all began. ‘We started sending avocados to our son in Cape Town as avocados were so expensive there. This sparked great interest from others interested in ordering avocados. Consequently, we conducted trials with boxes and couriers which led to Fresh from the Farm starting in early March 2020. For us, it’s all about local, well-crafted products and not wasting produce that is perfect to eat but may not look beautiful. Being as environmentally-mindful as we can with the packaging is very important to Fresh from the Farm.

It’s Always Better When It’s Fresh from the Farm!

Our motto is, ‘It’s always better when it’s fresh from the farm.’ We ensure that the products we send around the country arrive fresh and delicious by only picking for orders to be packed the following week. Supporting local is central to our ethos and apart from our avocados, we are proud to offer products like cold-pressed macadamia and avocado oils, pecan nuts as well as macadamia nougat, brittle, roasted, salted caramel macadamia nuts, peri peri macadamia nuts and dukkah all from local farms and made to order by artisans in the area.
