About

We follow many organic production principles and strongly believe in their value.

Legume cover crops, crop rotations, row covers, composted manure, strong vegetable varieties, healthy seed and organic controls are all methods we use. For example we use strictly organic insect control on our potatoes and sweet corn (as well as all other vegetables of course). This is something we are very proud of as very few farms (including those at Farmer's Markets) can make the same claim. Almost all the sweet corn and potatoes available to consumers in Manitoba have been sprayed (multiple times) with nasty fungicides, herbicides and insecticides such as organophosphates and organochlorines which can all affect our nervous systems and are potentially very toxic.
