Business as a force for good
Since launching in 2023, OzHarvest Ventures has been quietly rewriting the rules of what business for good can look like – turning rescued food into premium products, and every sale into meaningful impact supporting OzHarvest.
A sip with a story
Our first product, Conscious Drink, was born from an unlikely collaboration between Kakadu Kitchen’s Ben Tyler, ALTD Spirits’ Tim Trigg, and OzHarvest’s mission. The result is a delicious, zero-alcohol wine alternative that transforms rescued blueberries and wild-harvested First Nations botanicals into something extraordinary.
Now poured at the Capella Hotel in Sydney and the Qantas International First Class Lounge, Conscious Drink carries our message of sustainability and purpose to guests around the world. Every bottle strengthens the Indigenous-owned native foods supply chain, fights food waste and helps feed people in need.
Oh! For OzHarvest
Oh! is OzHarvest Ventures range of upcycled food products, which started with the award-winning Oh! Lemonaid launched in 2024, followed last year with Oh! Jam and Oh! Chilli Sauce.
The full range is now available through our online OzHarvest Shop and over 115 stockists Australia-wide. Every jar, every bottle, every drop: fruit and vegetables saved from landfill, farmers and local manufacturers supported, and one meal provided for someone in need.
“Every time someone chooses Oh! for OzHarvest, they’re backing farmers, cutting food waste, and helping OzHarvest feed those who need it most. You’re not just buying a product – you’re part of the solution.”

Gastronomy, our premium in-house hospitality and services business, continues to deliver exceptional experiences for major clients, with 100% of profits directed back into OzHarvest.
From imperfect to extraordinary.
Rob McLean has farmed citrus in Woodburn, NSW for over 20 years. He’s weathered eight floods and after the devastating 2022 deluge, more than half his lemon trees were damaged. Buyers stopped calling. Perfectly good lemons faced being wasted. Then OzHarvest Ventures came knocking.
Those “imperfect” lemons are now the heart of Oh! Lemonaid launched right on Rob’s farm, surrounded by the very trees that survived the floods.
“Knowing that each time someone drinks it, OzHarvest can feed someone in need that brings me so much joy,” says Rob. “And knowing it’s now served at Capella Sydney, gives me the tingles!”
Every can sold saves produce, supports farmers like Rob, and funds a meal for someone in need. Waste into taste. Resilience in every sip.
