“Working with my team and doing something different.”
Based in Braemar NSW, the Farm Fresh operation is a social enterprise providing customers the opportunity to buy locally grown and ethically produced herbs.
Farm Fresh produce is grown hydroponically and is planted, grown, and harvested by Scope's supported employees living with disability. You can buy and enjoy the freshest produce with the lowest carbon footprint – together we can do our part for environmental sustainability.
Our major customer is Sydney Direct Fresh Produce who deliver our fresh herbs to restaurants, pubs, clubs and café’s all over Sydney and surrounds.
You can also buy our herbs locally from IGA Moss Vale who have supported us from day one, and if you’re eating at Mittagong RSL or Paste Thai Restaurant, you might sample some of our microgreens on your dish!
