How to buy organic fruits and vegetables: your personal guide
Shopping for organic produce shouldn’t feel like a guessing game. You want the real thing — fresh, nutrient-rich food grown in healthy, living soil, by farmers who care about the land and the people they feed.
Start by choosing a grocer you trust
At Organika, we’ve spent years building genuine relationships with growers who share our values. We know where our produce comes from, how it was grown, and when it was picked — and we only work with farmers who meet certified organic standards or grow to equivalent regenerative, spray-free practices.
We believe trust should come from more than a sticker. It’s in the conversations we have, the freshness of our shelves, and the transparency we offer. Just ask us where something’s from — we’ll happily tell you the farm.
Freshness is everything
Organic should mean vibrant, full-of-life produce. We only bring in seasonal fruits and vegetables that are harvested close to home and delivered quickly, so what you see on our shelves is as fresh as possible.
We believe flavour, nutrition and freshness go hand in hand — and you’ll taste the difference.
Look beyond the certification
While we absolutely support certified organic standards — and everything in our produce section meets them or exceeds them — we also know it’s about more than a logo. For small Australian growers, certification can be costly and complex. That’s why we also support local farmers who use regenerative, spray-free methods and grow with integrity, even if they’re not officially certified yet.

Shop with the seasons
One of the easiest ways to know your produce is local and fresh? Shop seasonally. Seasonal fruit and veg aren’t just tastier — they’re more nutritious and better for the environment, too.
We love eating produce when it’s in season — because that’s when it tastes the best. And in organic farming, those peak seasons tend to be shorter. Without synthetic fertilisers and pesticides to artificially extend growing windows, we rely on nature — just as nature intended.
Here’s a general guide to what’s typically at its peak throughout the year in Australia — though it can vary depending on the variety and growing conditions:
- Summer – Mangoes, cherries, watermelon, stone fruits, tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchinis, capsicums
- Autumn – Apples, pears, figs, pumpkins, eggplants, sweet potatoes, silverbeet
- Winter – Citrus fruits, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, root veg
- Spring – Strawberries, asparagus, peas, beans, lettuce, herbs
Support local farmers and lower your footprint
Choosing Australian-grown produce means you’re not just getting fresher food — you’re backing small-scale farmers and helping to reduce food miles.
Ask about packaging
We do our best to avoid unnecessary packaging wherever we can. Our focus is on produce that’s fresh, low-impact, and thoughtfully handled — always with the environment and your health in mind.
How to store your organic fruits and vegetables
Storing your produce properly helps extend its life and reduce waste. Here are some of our favourite ways to keep your fruit and veg fresh:
- Leafy greens: Wrap in a clean towel and store in airtight container in fridge.
- Root vegetables: Store in cool, dark place or fridge crisper. Remove tops.
- Tomatoes: Keep at room temperature, away from sunlight.

- Avocados & bananas: Ripen on bench, refrigerate once ripe.
- Berries: Store in shallow container in fridge, unwashed.
- Citrus fruits: Store loose in fridge crisper.
- Apples & pears: Refrigerate separately from leafy greens.
- Herbs: Wrap in damp paper towel and store in fridge jar or container.
