Restricted fruit and vegetable shopping options

Various shopping options are available for local residents and regular travellers, including those who cannot easily source products inside the Riverland Pest Free Area.

Shopping locally

We encourage you to continue to support local shops inside the Riverland Pest Free Area if you can do so. Some shops in Walker Flat, Swan Reach and Blanchetown have endeavoured to increase stock and broaden their offering to make more fresh fruit and vegetables available to support their Riverland community.

Note, when fruit fly outbreak restrictions are also in place you can move fruit and vegetables purchased at Riverland shops across all fruit fly affected areas. You must retain your itemised receipt and seal fruit and vegetables in a bag or container while moving them. Home-grown fruit cannot be moved from properties in a red outbreak area.

Shopping outside the Riverland Pest Free Area

Retailers on the fringe of the Riverland Pest Free Area can become accredited to sell restricted fruit and vegetables that meet the requirements to enter the Riverland Pest Free Area.

This means you can buy fruit and vegetables from an accredited retailer and, with an itemised receipt from within the last 14 days, bring them into the Riverland Pest Free Area.

• Coles, Murray Bridge – River View Road, Murray Bridge SA 5253
