Locally grown fruit and vegies
Such as oranges, grapes, avacados, mandarins, rockmelon, watermelon, tomatoes, mulberries, and onions from the roadside stalls. all stalls have an 'honesty box' system and charge very reasonable rates well below local supermarkets. local coles & woolworths supermarkets may buy their produce locally, but they are not permitted by company policy to negotiate their own price with growers. the supermarkets also end up having to buy their fruit from local growers at wholesale markets in adelaide or melbourne, meaning the carbon footprint is massive after two approx 5 hour trips in b double trucks! important note: mildura is in the fruit fly free zone, so you are not allowed to carry fruit and vegetables from outside this zone into mildura this can attract fines of up to $100,000. also any fruit taken outside of this zone must not be brought back into the zone. you should also not take fruit over interstate borders into south australia or new south wales fines may also apply.
