Title: on the way to Australia
Post by: Luna Lea on Monday 14 July, 2008
Hello,
we are a family with two kids and we move next month to Australia.
We will be three weeks in Sidney and then travel along the coast to Melbourne.

I am eating raw.
I don't have any idea, where I can buy organic food in Sidney and Melbourne.
Maybe you can recommend me some shops?
I would like to get in touch with other families who eat raw and live in a natural way.

In joy!
Luna Lea

Macro's is a good shop. It's in Sydney, and I think they might have a few shops in the outer suburbs. There's a few nice ones in Sydney - just can't remember the names!

I haven't ventured out that far West to know of any shops sorry.  There's a few places around Flemington (about 25km East of Blacktown) where you can buy produce at wholesale prices if you're willing to buy by the box.  I shop there for myself and save a couple of hundred dollars a week.

Here's a link to an old thread with some info.
