What is our Farm Box Program?
Our farm share is a way for you to connect meaningfully with what you eat through a subscription of veggies straight from our farm! We curate your box based on what’s in season as well as your personal preferences and then give you an opportunity to edit it before we harvest the produce. This means that you can get just what you want, or leave it to chance and try something new! (Deliveries July 13 to Oct 19,2024)
Benefits
fresh, clean food
Your share will be packed with organic produce picked at its prime and handled with expertise. Your favourite veggies will show up, along with some that you may try for the first time!
relationship
Your commitment to our farm will deepen your connection to what you and your loved ones eat. You will receive weekly updates from us as well as opportunities to see where and how your food is grown.
community
Your support means that our farm can continue to thrive. Small businesses like ours help create a vibrant, joyful community! We partner with other small business for your pick up locations, bringing business to them as well.

FAQ’S
What if I go away for a weekend?
Our farm box manager (Harvie) makes it easy for you to set your schedule. You may reschedule your share so that you receive two shares in one delivery, or you can opt to cancel your share entirely for the time that you are gone.
How can I customize my share?
There are several ways to do this.
When you sign up, you will have the chance to let us know how you feel about each item that we grow; our software will take that info to make sure that things you love have a greater chance of getting into your box and things you don’t love won’t!
You will have an opportunity each week to swap items that are available on the swap list.
At the same time, you will also have a chance to purchase extra items in case you need them.
