Good Food Fresh - March 22

In now: Chestnuts are falling and ready for collecting at Mount Wilson and Mount Irvine. You can also find them in shops.

At their best: Granny smith apples are tart early in the season and sweeter later so perfect now for pies and crumbles. Buy just-picked fruit from Bilpin orchard farm gates this weekend.

Best buy: Hot weather has been speeding growth of Asian vegetables.

In the vegie patch: Citrus leaf miner is twisting new foliage on citrus. Once the damage is visible, the pest has gone. Prevent further incursions with horticultural oil sprays, as the moth whose larvae do the damage won't lay eggs on an oily surface.
