Fresh Bucks participants: we have had to cease programming, and our vendors unfortunately will not be able to honor your remaining Fresh Bucks. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience, and we hope you were able to utilize most of them before this.

First delivery of our Harvest Boxes went out today!

Clients got swiss chard, kale, basil, onions, apples, zucchini, potatoes, and yellow squash!

Hopefully next week our tomatoes will be ripe enough to pack for our second group of clients!

Due to the Code Red Air Quality from the Canada wildfires, we will not be able to be set up at the Petrolia Market in the Park today. We are sorry for any inconvenience, but we want the public to also stay safe and indoors. We'll see you there next Thursday, with even more fresh produce from our own gardens!

Today, we were super excited to host the Prospect Library Summer Reading program families. They got a tour of the gardens, got to pet Rosie, and chased some of our resident spiders and frogs.

And look at how big our Zucchini plants are! We also have some giant pumpkins starting out.....maybe we will have a 2000lb pumpkin this year?

Oh, and if you're a fan of our work, we are on the hunt for a few additional board members-we'd love to talk to you about it!

We will be open until 5pm every night this week if you'd like to visit our produce stand......

Happy Monday Morning! Our gardens are starting to produce, and we have some varieties you won't find anywhere else. Today we are showcasing our Costata Romanesco Zucchini, an Italian heirloom variety that is low in both water content and seeds, making it easier to cook with. We will have some at both the Butler Library and Petrolia Farmer's Market, and every day at Artisan from 9am-3pm.
