Keep It Local
When we say LOCAL, we mean LOCAL!
We love local food, and supporting our local community!
Every animal we sell comes from our farm or from one of the amazing family farmers who grow for us. We take pride in the relationships we have established over the last 10 years. We are so thankful for, and proud of, all the talented organic and eco farmers we work with.
We are all real farmers, actual farmers! None of the meat we sell comes from a meat wholesaler. Can your local butcher shop say that? Ask— you may be surprised to find out that some of the meat sold in local butcher shops comes from all over North America. Not here!
There is no point in selling local food if you don't spend the money in your local community! So, we do. We buy from the local hardware store; we use only local butchers, transportation companies, and feed suppliers.
It is our goal that the money we generate on our farm enriches the local economy. This means the suppliers and vendors, farm partners, and butchers we use are as close to our farm as possible.
Over 90% of all our suppliers and vendors are located no more than 200 km from our farm—small, family-run businesses working to make a difference in the local economy.
Over 90% of all our expenses are shared among these local businesses. More than 90% of the money we spend to operate the farm—the day-to-day things—all stays within 200 km of our farm.
Think about it: feed, fencing supplies, hardware, building supplies, repairs, tractor parts, butchering, fuel—all local. That is pretty awesome! And that is truly what local means!
We grow nutrient-dense, chemical- and antibiotic-free, humanely raised organic food to feed our family, friends, and neighbors. Our customer base is Ontario. All of Ontario—anywhere in Ontario. If you are in Ontario, we want to grow food for you and your family!
So, Ontario, when we say “local,” please know we actually mean local! Help us keep our neighbours and fellow Ontarians employed—buy our meats!
