Dayse
 |
Non-Alcoholic Beverages |
Dayse was created by Jack Freestone and Alana Blanchard in collaboration with Organica Beverage Co, founded by Tom Woolley and Phil Johnson. The brand aims to provide a healthier alternative to alcohol with their 'Functional Spritz' drinks, using plant-based extracts to create beverages that offer subtle effects without the downsides of traditional alcohol consumption. The founders recognized a growing trend of reduced alcohol consumption and sought to innovate a premium, great-tasting drink that aligns with conscious consumption. |

Naturally Driven
 |
Beverages |
An idea that was brought to life by two friends on the dance floor at a festival, sharing our love of Yerba Maté. We contemplated why there was a distinct lack of low sugar, non-alcoholic beverages that contained natural energy with real health benefits made with organic ingredients. We came to the realisation that not many people in Australia knew of the magical South American herb - Yerba Maté. So why not create a new type of energy drink to share with the Australian market. One that was all natural, organic, low sugar, naturally caffeinated, and most importantly, really tasty!! Our first mission: Find the best quality, sustainable and ethically sourced Organic Yerba Maté. Our next mission: To turn those amazing tea leaves into a tasty, natural energy drink with no added caffeine or horrible tasting sweeteners. We found that by cold brewing, we lock in all the nutrients and retain the high levels of caffeine from the Yerba Maté leaf. Though we had no idea of the mammoth task ahead of us. Countless trials and Yerba Maté down the drain, an exploding brewery and not to mention long COVID delays… All this to make the perfect energy drink. So here we are, 2 years later - We have an amazing range of ACO certified organic teas, Two sparkling organic Yerba Maté bevvies made from nothing but nature. We also teamed up with Rainforest Rescue to produce eco-friendly accessories and to help raise money and awareness about regenerating rainforests! |

THE FIRST PIZZA CERTIFIED ORGANIC IN AUSTRALIA! Our humble beginnings began with our very first Farro spelt pizzeria restaurant in Thornbury. Our goal was to simply share the power of using spelt flour and organic ingredients and encourage more of our community to make conscious food choices. Fast forward to today, we are proud to say that we now have multiple organic spelt pizzeria restaurants across Melbourne – and counting! Our mission is to inspire people near, far and wide, to live a healthy & happy life through conscious food choices that are still yummy, and everyone will love! We use spelt flour because it's not only delicious but also nutritious. Spelt is an ancient grain that's easier to digest and packed with more protein and fiber than regular wheat, giving our pizzas and pastas a wholesome flavor without compromising on health. Organic mozzarella cheese offers superior taste and quality. Free from synthetic additives and produced with care, our organic mozzarella melts perfectly, adding a rich, creamy flavor to our pizzas. |

Bakery |
Our philosophy is simple, really - We want nothing less than a revolution for gluten free foods. For too long, gluten free and allergen conscious foods have suffered a (deservedly) bad reputation. We are determined to change this. We are dedicated to crafting delicious bakery items, that just happen to be gluten and dairy free. Our products celebrate beautiful ingredients, direct from farmers and producers. Organic flour, seeds and dried fruit, whole grains, truly free range eggs and the best honey in the world (Malfroy's Gold, we aren't biased...). We also avoid refined sugar where possible and do not use any gums or preservatives. We treat our ingredients with care and consideration, using skills we have developed over years of baking. Everything is hand-made, artisinal and small batch. We feel blessed to have been embraced by top restaurants and devoted, loyal customers who recognise our commitment to challenge perceptions of what gluten free food can be. If you haven't already tried our products, we invite you to taste the difference. |

The Fermentary

Fermented Foods |
The Fermentary is the culmination of a life-long passion of Sharon Flynn, author of Ferment for Good and Wild Drinks. Since 2014, the Fermentary has been primarily a manufacturer of award-winning sauerkraut and kimchi, supplying Australia's best restaurants and shops. Craving face-to-face connection with customers, friends and students as the world was slowly opening up following the pandemic, Sharon, with her daughters, opened up a space in Fitzroy North called Pickwick House. It has taken on a life of its own - a space to teach, create, and share Sharon's favourite ferments from around the world, and more. We ferment in small-batches, naturally culturing food and drinks, slowly and with minimal intervention. Our focus has always been sourcing simple, good ingredients and letting the slow ferment - making time and care/love very important ingredients that are, unfortunately, in short supply in our modern food industry. |
