The Spring Family Farm

upported agriculture program year round. Customers benefit from food that is higher in nutritional value and more flavourful than store-bought produce because of the short time between harvest and consumption. Customers also benefit from a clear conscience in purchasing food with a low carbon footprint and no herbicides or pesticides. Lastly, customers benefit from a strong relationship between food producer and consumer, which empowers the customer to be a part of the food production process. Supporting your local farmer builds a strong community that is less dependent on a large-scale food industry. While using innovative, safe and sustainable farming methods, I envision a future where Muskoka has a sustainable food system, where gardens thrive in urban neighborhoods, and where good food is easily accessible to all.
