From the orchard

Fresh Red Plums

Hand peeled from spray-free yuzu, grown in our Wairarapa orchard.

Tastes like Sweet with a gentle tang, and a skin that carries a little extra tartness against the soft, juicy flesh underneath. Ripe plums are fragrant and give slightly to a gentle squeeze, with juice that runs the moment you bite in.

The Details

Hand-picked from our own orchard, these plums are left to ripen naturally before picking, so what lands in your box is as sweet, juicy and full-flavoured as it gets. Good eaten fresh, baked into a crumble, or stewed down for breakfast..

Things to Do

Eat them straight off the tree, still warm from the sun. Slice into a summer salad, stew down with a little sugar for breakfast, or bake into a crumble or cake once the season's cooler. They also pair beautifully with cheese, if you're after something a bit more grown up.

Where It Came From

Grown spray-free in our Wairarapa orchard, ripened slowly on the tree and picked by hand. Even the fertilising is natural — our horses graze among the trees.Grown on our family orchard in the Wairarapa, spray-free and picked by hand at their peak.

Our yuzu trees are the reason Good Hands exists, we planted them before most people here had heard of yuzu, drawn to a fruit the Japanese have prized for centuries. Even the fertilising is done the natural way: our horses graze among the trees, feeding the soil that feeds the fruit.

The Goodness

Plums are a proper little powerhouse for a fruit that size. They're rich in vitamin C and antioxidants like anthocyanins, the same compounds that give the skin its deep red colour, along with a good dose of fibre to help keep things moving. A sweet snack that's doing you some good too.
