has just started flowering here in Tassie and for the next month Tas-Saff’s
combined growers will produce about 10kg for the year. It is a very slow process, not only picking
by hand and the drying process of this delicate product, but the weather
conditions leading up to harvest play a huge role in how well the season will
go. This flavoursome product fetches up
to $35,000kg in this country.
