Today we reach the spring equinox, when daylight & darkness are roughly equal in length.

More light changes so much about how we spend our days and our bodies respond accordingly. Natural daylight helps guide our daily rhythm of waking & sleeping. You might notice yourself wanting to be outside a little more. To open the windows, get your hands in the soil, or have someone over for lunch.

In the garden, lots is changing and the longer days & gradually warming soil encourage fresh growth. Plants that have been taking their time over winter begin putting on new leaves and shoots. We love noticing a little flower pop out in a spot we’ve walked past every day.

With the extra daylight we hope you get to enjoy an after-work walk, pick something from the garden, or put a single flower on the kitchen table. These are simple things, but they often make an ordinary day feel that little bit spesh.

Simple living helps us slow down to appreciate the changes happening in real world around us and within ourselves, some things that are easy to miss when we’re busy.

We now have King Proteas from Feldi Farms in the Fleurieu in store.

These King Protea flowers are incredible. Just a single stem in a vase adds so much beauty to the home.

They are grown outdoors, with just real sun & natural rainfall. Feldi Farms doesn’t use herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, so no off-gassing in the home.

We spend a lot of time at home, two thirds of our life. It’s where we do our cooking, family meal times, resting, nervous system regulation, and create memories. So adding these flowers to the home makes such a simple but profound difference.

We love them because they are so simple, and looking at them reminds us just how beautiful the world is. We hope they can do the same for you in your home.

Clinical Naturopath Anna Will recently ran an insightful Blood Sugar Regulation workshop in our Simple Living event space.

Much was covered, questions were answered, and Anna made some blood-sugar friendly recipes for guests to try too!

It was very much about simple, small everyday ingredients and lifestyle choices that make a huge difference.

If you didn’t make it, comment if you want us to run it again!

“What’s the best potato for.....?” Is a question we get asked everyday! And fair enough, even though they look somewhat similar, they each have their own personality.

Dutch Creams are a perfect all-rounder, super smooth and buttery texture. We love them roasted, but you can also use them for mash, boiling or gratins.

Sebago potatoes are great when you want that nice crispy outside and fluffy inside combo. Think roast potatoes, potato chips/wedges and mash.

Kipfler are low in starch, so they hold their shape and have a firm waxy texture inside when roasting. They are usually slightly more expensive but so worth it. We love them roasted whole or boiled and served with butter & herbs.

Desiree are another great all-rounder with red skin and creamy flesh that holds well together. We usually use them for gnocchi or potato salad, or roast them for a different flavour.

Midnight pearl has a niche following, they are purple inside, so they are richer in antioxidants and add a bit of colour to your plate when you want to make your dinner a little more spesh. They have a slight earthy and nutty flavour.

We offer others throughout the year too like Nicola, King Edward, Red Pontiac, Neptune, Prince of Orange, Salad Rose, Queen Anne, Fidelia, Red Lady and more.

So dabble in different ones to find your favourite.

Here are a few simple things we do over winter that help us not get sick as much.

We try our very best to stay properly warm and eat that way too. Slippers at home are not negotiable, going outside into the elements is relished but we wear proper clothes that keep us warm, warm feet at night, and warming food throughout the day. We cook slow-cooked meals, broths and soups rather than cold lunches. Our immune system does its best work in a warm, well-nourished body.

We say no a bit more. Winter just isn’t the season for a packed calendar. Some catch-ups can wait until spring, and the right people will understand. Turning things down at this time of year isn’t being antisocial, it’s looking after yourself.

When the sickness warning signs come our way, we listen. You know the feeling. You wake up and your throat is just slightly scratchy, your eyes are heavy, and everything feels like a little more effort than it should.

There’s a moment right there where you can make a choice. Most people talk themselves out of it: it’s probably nothing, big day tomorrow, I’ll see how I go. And three days later they’re flat on the couch wondering what happened. 

In our houses, that morning goes differently. Whatever can move gets moved. Dinner is soup, and it’s early. The evening plans become a hot shower and bed by nine. It sounds almost too small to matter, but a simple, easy day is very often the difference between waking up well tomorrow and losing two weeks.

None of it is complicated, and we all know it deep down.

Staying warm and resting well is simple living.

How often do you throw together a salad of leftovers, with it being the side piece to a meal?

Here’s a little reminder that salads can be simple, yet still the centrepiece of a meal, or the meal itself.

Salads are the perfect excuse to pack lots of different textures, colours and flavours into one bowl and reap the digestive, antioxidant and wellbeing benefits.

With seasonal fresh produce, the options are actually endless.

We always have this Golden Harvest Salad, with a delicious Green Dream dressing, on rotation as soon as the Autumn pumpkins roll around.

Save this to your “too cook” album.

🥗Salad ingredients
2 cups kale
½ butternut pumpkin (cubed)
1 can chickpeas
2 tbsp pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
2 tbsp sunflower seeds
¼ cup pomegranate seeds or cranberries
1 punnet cherry tomatoes (halved)
⅓ cup quinoa
1 tbsp Best of the Bone broth concentrate

🫙Green Dream dressing ingredients
1 avocado
½ cup fresh parsley
½ cup fresh basil
1 garlic clove
3 tbsp nut milk
¼ cup olive oil
2 tbsp lime juice
Pinch of salt

Take the leap. Go out of your comfort zone. Try a new salad or dressing.
Or come to our Seasonal Friends Autumn Salad Special to learn how to.
