sustainable produce for sustainable people
 Whether it is rich, flavoursome grassfed Wagyu, tantalising organic/biodynamic beef, tender saltbush free range lamb or mouth-watering free range pork and organic poultry, we guarantee to bring you exceptional quality in all the produce we source, all at dramatically reduced prices. Urban Food Market sources sustainable produce wherever possible with 80% of our produce being procured from sustainable farmers, and by the end of 2010, it will be 100%! We partner with sustainable producers where-ever possible to source produce which has a minimum impact on our environment as we strongly believe that without sustainable measures, we will not be able to enjoy quality food in the future let alone enjoy the world we live in. We keep overproduction, wastage, environmental impact and pricing to minimum by working with these producers to only cater for set orders thus, we do not order the stock until we have an order from you. We also collect it straight from the source, so there are fewer hands trying to get their cut out of the sale, which means no huge mark-ups for exceptional free range and organic produce. Best yet, we’ll deliver it straight to your door. |

 250 million years ago, when the Earth was still pristine and unpolluted, the sun-dried remnants of a primal sea, left us with the purest, most beneficial salt on earth, Himalayan Crystal Salt. Mined by hand in the foothills of the Himalayas, Salarium Argentum Himalayan Crystal Salt is the highest grade of natural salt that could possibly exist. Uniquely pristine and natural, it contains 84 of the possible 92 trace minerals of which our bodies are made up. |

Toast of the roasts Bultarra lamb is converting Sydneysiders, writes Olivia Riordan. An ancestral stream of the Murray River flows through Robert Meares's family farm. Alongside, there are about 1 million saltbush plants that help reduce the crippling effects of salinity. It is almost 30 years since Meares decided to plant the perennial native, to revive both the dying water course and the family lamb business. Now working alongside his twin children, his environmental initiative has paid off and he has received praise from gourmets for the family's Bultarra Saltbush Lamb. |
