The Benefits of Making Healthier Grocery Choices with Harris Farm Markets



Why You Should Make Healthier Grocery Choices with Harris Farm Markets?

In Season 8, Episode 19 of House of Wellness, Harris Farm Markets took center stage as Nabula Brdar, founder of Supermarket Swap, shared insights with Zoe Bingley-Pullin on the benefits of making healthier grocery choices. A simple yet impactful strategy is to swap out processed ingredients for natural ones. Key advice includes scrutinising ingredient lists to avoid artificial flavours and colours.

At Harris Farm Markets, we take pride in being Coloured by Nature. This means we have eliminated artificial colours from our stores. Why? Because it’s better for your health, better for the planet, and, frankly, it just tastes better. This is how food is meant to be—naturally vibrant and delicious.


Seasonal Selections for Savings

Another effective way to eat healthier without breaking the bank is by purchasing in-season fruits and vegetables. At Harris Farm Markets, our prices and specials are determined by the seasons, making us more like a traditional market than a typical supermarket. Seasonality is everything when it comes to fruit & veg - for quality, price & sustainability and there's no sharper observer than our hero David Harris. If something isn't up to much chop, Dave will tell you straight. It's honest info direct from the source. The market moves fast - so stay up to date with Dave's Market Update, your weekly must-read here.

Tip: Keep an eye out for our Mid-week and Weekend Specials, available both in-stores and online, to take advantage of these seasonal savings.


Embracing Imperfection to Reduce Waste

One of our pioneering initiatives is the Imperfect Picks range, launched in 2014. This program reduces food waste by relaxing aesthetic standards and selling fruits and vegetables that might otherwise be rejected due to minor blemishes or imperfections. While there is beauty in perfectly shaped produce, there is value in the oddest picks too. Our mission is to nourish people with good food, not to send perfectly edible produce to landfills. By choosing Imperfect Picks, you support farmers, reduce waste, and save money.


Trust in Home-Brand Quality

Customers can also save by choosing home-brand products. Our Harris Farm Heroes line is a testament to our commitment to quality and affordability. Found in every aisle, these products are free from artificial colours and designed to reconnect you with the joy of wholesome, natural food. At Harris Farm Markets, we aim to be more market than supermarket, providing quality products that reflect our values and dedication to healthier living.

At Harris Farm Markets, we are not just another supermarket. From our love of imperfect picks, to working alongside farmers and communities. We're on a mission to reconnect Aussies with the natural joy of food. Because we believe in far more than the food we sell, we're for the Greater Goodness.
