Hello Farm Folk,
Harvest time is here and it’s time to think about where you will get your share of the local, organic harvest this year. Here are some great options:
Weekly Food Basket
There are tons of great options of farms and organizations providing weekly baskets of fresh, local produce. Here are some of our favourites:
Farmers’ Markets
There are so many amazing Farmers’ Markets in Southern Ontario. These markets offer community members the opportunity to source the best quality food — grown and produced using sustainable methods. Here is a map of Farmers’ Markets in Southern Ontario. We’re at Sorauren Farmers’ Market every Monday, and would love to see you!
Local, Organic Garlic
There are so many great garlic farms in Ontario! Many of these farms take pre-orders, so you might want to get in touch soon. The Cutting Veg garlic crop for 2021 is on track to be a special one. 47,000 bulbs were planted in fall, 24 varieties in total. Included in our crop are a few newer varieties, including Guatemalan, Japanese, Argentinean, and German! We will start taking pre-orders later this month…you’ll be hearing from us
Yup, it’s harvest time! In our home, we’re already eating homegrown salad mix, arugula, rhubarb, green onions, green garlic, asparagus, and more. YUM! Where are you getting your share of the harvest this year?
Keep Livin’ on the Veg!
