If you're the kind of person who eats olives as if they were going out of fashion, this market day is for you. Mount Zero is back with its quarterly Zero Waste Warehouse Market so you can hoard away olives and olive-based goodies by the kilo. The Zero Waste Warehouse Market saves an estimated 1000 glass olive oil bottles each edition, and saves packaging from more than 300kg of olives and grains.
Mount Zero, a premium Victorian olive, olive oil, pulse (lentils, chickpeas, split fava beans, freekeh, farro, etc) and salt producer is opening its warehouse doors on Saturday, October 29, from 9am-2pm and encouraging you to bring whatever size container you choose to purchase your items in bulk, straight from the source.
An introduction to miso and koji workshop will be popping up for the Spring edition of the Zero Waste Warehouse Market. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about koji, a traditional Japanese fermentation culture that forms the base of soy sauce, sake and miso, and how to use it in cooking, for just $30 per person.
There will be new and returning friends and collaborators showcasing their bulk and package-free produce at the Zero Waste Warehouse Market on Saturday, including Akimbo Bakery selling their slow-fermented sourdough loaves, Noisy Ritual slinging their minimal intervention wines and Common Garden Health offering organic loose leaf teas.
To fuel you through your shopping day, Market Lane will be selling ethically sourced beans and offering complimentary filter coffee.
Find the market at 6 Law Court, Sunshine West from 9am-2pm on October, 29.
