Fruity and fragrant, this shrub is a celebration of abundance we forage ourselves. Juicy ripe mandarins picked by Genna and young pine needles wild-harvested by Katrina. 

Traditionally, shrubs were used to preserve fruits and herbs they were plentiful, reducing food waste and locking in nutrition to be consumed later. This shrub is crafted in the same spirit - capturing the bounty of the season and preserving it for the future (or until sold out).

Pinus radiata is native to what we now call California. Introduced to Australia in 1870 as a fast growing multipurpose timber, it grows a little too well in the Northern Rivers and outside of plantations is considered a weed. Radiata pine is valued in traditional medicine for its high vitamin C and used for respiratory conditions. 

🤰 This particular shrub is not advised when pregnant or breast/chest feeding because of the high oil content in the pine needles. All our other shrubs are fine for you - just not this one.
