Organic limes from Brazil

 

Glad to share that we have plenty of organic limes from Brazil in stock for you!

Organic limes have no wax on the peel and therefore are perfect for drinks and recipes. 

Interesting facts about Limes:

  • Lime juice is used in cooking and in drinks. Lime oils are often used in perfumes and cosmetics.
  • Did you know; limes sink whereas lemons float
  • Limes contain Vitamin C, which combats scurvy. During the 19th century, English soldiers were therefore rationed with one lime (which cost less than lemons) a day. This is why the English are sometimes called Limeys.
  • Limes are native to India. They were probably introduced in the New World in the late 15th century by Christopher Columbus, who carried lime seeds with him on his second voyage.
  • One lime tree can produce over 1000 fruits annually
  • The bigger the leaves the smaller the limes

Organic grapes 2026/27: plan ahead to secure volumes

The overseas grape season starts in mid-December, but planning begins now. Demand for organic grapes remains strong and our growers need early visibility on the volumes they can reserve for fixed programmes. By aligning programmes in advance, we can secure organic volumes more effectively and are also in a stronger position to offer competitive pricing.

Carpe Diem: quality organic grapes start with the soil

Along the Orange River in South Africa’s Northern Cape lies Carpe Diem, a long-standing and trusted partner for our organic grapes. Owner Gog van der Colff took over the family business in 2000 and made the deliberate decision to switch to organic farming in 2006. What began as a step that not everyone was initially convinced by has developed into a progressive organic farm producing grapes, pecans and raisins.
