Sell what you grow to people nearby.
Ripe connects backyard growers, small farms and farm gates with locals who want real, fresh food. Post what's ripe, set your pickup times, and buyers come to you.
📸 Post in a minute
Add a photo or short video, a price and how much you've got. Mark it "picked today" to jump to the top.
🔔 Followers get notified
Buyers follow your stall and get a notification every time you list something new.
🏡 Your gate, your rules
Choose your pickup times. Your address only goes to buyers whose reservation you've confirmed.
Set up once, sell all season
Create your stall
Add your stall name, logo, a short bio and the area you're in. Every stall has a logo, and we can help you make one.
List what's ready
Photos or videos, price, quantity and pickup windows. Update or sell out with one tap.
Confirm & hand over
You get a notification for each reservation. Confirm it, and the buyer turns up at the agreed time.
Simple pricing, no commission
Everyone sells free until June 2027. After that, one listing at a time stays free for good. Selling more than one item takes a flat monthly plan with no commission, so you keep every dollar you make. Buying on Ripe is always free.
Free
All sellers list free while we launch, with as many listings as you like.
Free/always
One active listing at a time, free forever. Ideal for a one-off: a ute load of pumpkins, a box of lemons or a spare lemon tree.
$6/month
Or $60 a year (2 months free). Unlimited listings for home gardens, backyard eggs and honey, and small surplus.
$19/month
Or $190 a year (2 months free). Unlimited listings for farms, farm gates, nurseries and butchers.
Keep it fresh, local and legal
Most backyard fruit and veg needs no licence. Some products do, and you must hold the right one before listing them.
- Fresh fruit, veg & herbs: generally fine to sell when unprocessed and grown by you
- Eggs: in most states, selling eggs means registering or licensing with your state food authority, and eggs generally need to be stamped with your producer ID
- Honey: in most states and territories, beekeepers must be registered with their state agriculture or biosecurity department
- Jams, sauces, baked or cut produce: usually a food business notification or registration with your local council
- Meat: only from licensed businesses. Meat must be processed at a licensed abattoir and sold under the right licence from your state food authority. Home-killed meat can't be sold.
- Nurseries: list as a visit-in-store seller. Show your stock list and a photo gallery, and customers see prices in store.
- Not allowed: live animals, seafood, unpasteurised dairy, alcohol, plants or produce under biosecurity movement restrictions, or anything you didn't grow or make
This is a general guide, not legal advice. Rules change, so check with your state or territory food authority or your council if you're unsure. We may ask to see your licence before your listings go live.

Before you sign up
What does it cost?
Nothing until June 2027: no listing fees and no commission. From June 2027, one active listing at a time is always free, so if you only sell the odd item you never pay. To list two or more items at once, backyard growers pay $6 a month ($60 a year) and businesses pay $19 a month ($190 a year). There's no commission, so you keep 100% of every sale, and there are no card fees on top. We'll remind you at least 30 days before any payment, and you can drop back to one free listing at any time.
Do I need an ABN?
Not to sell occasional backyard surplus. If you sell regularly as a business, you may need one. The ATO website explains when hobby selling becomes a business.
Is my home address public?
No. Buyers only see your general area. Your exact pickup address goes to a buyer once you confirm their reservation.
What if a buyer doesn't show up?
Mark the reservation as a no-show in the app. Repeat no-shows are flagged, and you can block any buyer.
Can I post videos?
Yes, and we encourage it. Short clips of your garden, a fresh pick or the chooks do brilliantly with buyers.
