Harvesting

Organic dried kiwi is typically grown in warm, subtropical climates, with New Zealand being a prominent producer. The kiwi fruit, also known as the Chinese gooseberry, is harvested in the late autumn to early winter months, usually between April and May in the Southern Hemisphere. The fruit is carefully picked when ripe to ensure optimal flavour and nutritional content. Once harvested, the kiwi fruit is carefully sliced and then dried using gentle, natural methods to preserve its vibrant green colour and natural sweetness.

The drying process helps to concentrate the fruit's natural sugars, resulting in a deliciously tangy and chewy texture. Organic dried kiwi is naturally rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin K, and dietary fibre. It also contains minerals such as potassium and copper, making it a wholesome and nutritious snack. As a raw product, organic dried kiwi retains its natural composition, with no added sugars, preservatives, or artificial colours, making it a healthy and convenient option for on-the-go snacking or as an ingredient in culinary creations.

The organic nature of Organic Dried Kiwi means that it is grown and harvested without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, preserving its natural composition.

Best Before

We believe in mindful consumption and want to share some insights on best before dates, especially when it comes to our dried foods. Best before dates indicate peak freshness and quality, not safety. Dried foods, such as grains and legumes, can often be safe and nutritious beyond their best before dates. They may lose a bit of their peak quality, but they remain a valuable and sustainable food source.

We encourage you to trust your senses. If stored properly and free from moisture, dried foods can maintain their safety and flavour for an extended period beyond the best before date. Embrace a less wasteful approach by exploring and using these ingredients even if they've passed their best before dates. Together, let's reduce food waste and maximise the full potential of every pantry staple.

Explore Waste Savers, where you'll find items approaching or past their best before date at reduced prices. Embrace conscious consumption, reduce food waste, and give these products a second chance. Your purchase not only saves you money but also contributes to a more sustainable and mindful approach to nourishment.

Packaging & Storage

You’ll receive your Organic Dried Kiwi in a compostable kraft bag (unless you chose to get a compostable resealable pouch instead). These will be fine stored in the kraft bag for an extended time although, we recommend decanting and storing them in an airtight container to maintain optimum quality. Once decanted, you can save multiple bags and return them to us for a reward.
