Roland's two major suppliers are: Hussey & Co from the Mornington Peninsular in Victoria, Australia who supply an amazing range of Salad Mixes and Lotus Red who supply a delicious range of head lettuces.
Hussey & Co for Australia's Finest Salad Mixes
‘Pioneers and innovators of Salad Mix since 1975' is the claim made by Hussey & Co and it is a very accurate claim. Hussey & Co. have been growing salad mixes for 31 years on the Mornington Peninsular which is just to the South East of Melbourne, Victoria's capital city. But they are far enough out of the city to be in a pristine environment that is eminently suited to growing baby leaf salad mixes. The climate is temperate and has a lot of good pure rain.
Hussy & Co. pride themselves at being constant innovators always developing new and exciting products. They certainly have an amazing range of some 30 different salad mixes. From Asian mix to Chinios (a mix of Red Chard, Pea Tendrils, Tatsoi, and Lupins), Mesclun to Winter Mix (a mix of Black Cabbage, Baby Cos, Radicchio, Frillice, Pea Tendrils, Lupins and Frizze). With all these varieties what more could a chef or home cook wish for?
Lotus Red For Fantastic Lettuces
Roland has been dealing with Lotus Red for many years. Lotus Red grows the finest hydroponic head lettuces available. Roland deals directly with the farm that produces the salad vegetables to ensure the best possible quality in lettuces. And the farms grow the salads according to the needs of the Singapore market.
Again, Roland uses his expertise to ensure that those vegetables reach your kitchen as fresh and in as premium condition as humanly possible. The range includes green and red oakleaf, green and red coral and mini cos lettuces.
Specialty Lines
Redgum also has many specialty lines including Microgreens and Potted Baby Herbs that are wonderful for chefs. Imagine decorating your dish with a special garnish picked from the pot in the kitchen window.
Redgum's newest range of fresh produce is Gourmet Sprouts. Sprouts are delicious and nutritious as well as a perfect addition to your salads. The range includes everything from radish sprouts to broccoli sprouts as well as a special 'crunchy combo.'
