Returning to the Farmer’s Market
We are excited to announce that we will return to the Mount Gambier Farmer’s Market this Saturday May 10. This is the annual Mother’s Day market so there will be a broad range of stalls for attendees to enjoy. Evan and Jill will both attend the market offering a range of seasonal vegetables as well as our full range of supplements. We look forward to seeing our loyal customers this Saturday.
The recent lull in production gave us some time to work on the farm in general and we have done a power of work over the last month. As seen in the photo above we have buried all of our irrigation pipes, topped up the mulch on all of our paths (a huge task) and received delivery of a truck load of compost. As we are a no-till operation we top dress our beds rather than dig in our compost. The bottom 4 beds in the photo have been top-dressed and every bed in the garden will receive the same over the next few months as we turn over crops and replant them.
Our produce is featured on the menu at the Nelson Hotel and customers are welcome to come and visit the farm to take a look and purchase vegetables Monday to Saturday between 11:00 am and 6:00 pm.
Look out for official farm tours coming soon!
Our online store is now live meaning customers from all over Australia and the world can order our supplement range to be posted to them.

Notes From The Garden
At Rainbow OMG we recognise the centuries long tradition of Moon Planting. In short the different phases of the Moon correspond to growth in in different parts of plants with about 7 days for each phase. The order is Leaf, Fruit/Flower, Root and Stop. We find this cycle an excellent tool for planning and scheduling of all the regular tasks needed for a functional farm.
We are currently in a Fruit/Flower Week which means planting Flowers, Sugar Snap Peas and Broccoli as well as topdressing our Capsicums with compost. Last Week we planted our next succession of Spinach into beds with compost as well as more Lettuce. We also have our Nursery Greenhouse arriving soon which once set up with greatly improve the germination and growth of all our seedlings.
Product Focus – Green Machine Capsules
Green Machine is a herbal blend based on the edible tree Moringa. It is formulated to provide a real and sustained energy boost for your day as well as providing more of the health benefits listed below. We take 1 capsule every day except Sunday which is our rest day. Always remember to drink plenty of water when consuming Moringa as it can dehydrate you quite quickly.
Moringa is a remarkable plant and is actually an edible tree, rather than a vegetable. Also known as the Miracle Tree or Miracle Plant, all parts of Moringa are edible or medicinal but the most commonly used element is its leaves in the form of a dried powder. Moringa is one of the very few plants to contain all 9 Essential Amino Acids as well as gram for gram:
- 4 x the Vitamin A of Carrots
- 2 x the Protein of Yoghurt
- 3 x the Potassium of Bananas
- 4 x the Calcium of Cows Milk
- 7 x the Vitamin C of Oranges
Moringa provides a myriad of health benefits including but not limited to:
- Antioxidants
- Anti-Inflammatory
- Balances Hormones
- Anti-Aging
- Improves Digestion
- Balances Blood Sugar
- Protects and Nourishes the skin
- Mood Stabilizer
- Protects Brain
- Protects Thyroid
We are currently growing Moringa from seed in various locations around our garden. They are a tropical tree so we are establishing them in warm micro climates where they can thrive.
In the meantime we source Organic Moringa in bulk and make a supplements in capsules as a simple remedy for regular consumption. We combine Organic Moringa with Organic Turmeric, Vitmain C, Spirulina and Black Pepper.
We suggest taking 1 capsule every morning for energy, stamina and motivation throughout your day.
We offer Moringa Capsules year round in our webstore
Contents: 100 Capsules
Ingredients: Organic Moringa, Organic Turmeric, Vitamin C, Spirulina, Black Pepper
