🌿 MAKARAKA VEGES – SORRY BUT NOT SORRY 🌿

Gisborne’s Independent Greengrocer

We’re sorry…

…that our tomatoes are so juicy they drip down your chin.

…that our strawberries taste like summer bottled.

…that our kale makes you forget you ever hated kale.
We’re sorry…

…that you now judge every other supermarket carrot.

…that your kids fight over the last kiwifruit.

…that your compost bin is empty because nothing goes to waste.

…that we are open for 365 days

BUT WE’RE NOT SORRY.

Not for supporting local growers.
Not for hand-picking every bunch.
Not for making healthy taste this good.
So yeah, we’re sorry you’re addicted.

But we’re not sorry we did it.
