How To Find What You Are Looking For!

Use the Navigation Menu along the top. Here is what you will find in each section:

About Us: History/story of the farm, organic certification, projects going on at the farm as well as information regarding volunteer and employment opportunities.

Veggie Co-op: Here you will find information about the Organic Farm's Veggie Co-op, which is a bulk buying club where members subscribe for the season. Find membership applications and information for both prospective and returning Veggie Co-op members. Veggie Coop is filled for 2008 Season. Visit us at Farm Store now open 1 - 5 p.m. on week-ends and St. John's Farmers' Market opening in June.

Farm Store/Gardening Centre: Go here to learn what is offered in the On-site Garden Centre, the Farm Store. You'll also find a link to harvest dates and a price list.

Farm Notes: A weekly update of what is available, comments on new veggie and herbs and general dialogue about what is happening on the farm and in the community. Also, dates and meeting times for organic workshops.

The Anonymous Gourmet: This new and exciting feature of the Website will include recipes and restaurant reviews by a flair cook who has used many of the farm products in the most creative way imaginable. Why anonymous? We are going the no-name approach so she will not be recognized when dining at a local restaurant under review.

Fact Sheets and Articles: Fact Sheets are one or two pagers, which deal specifically with items available on the farm, e.g. Edible Flowers, Fava Beans, etc. Articles may be excerpts or full articles, on a variety of topics, published elsewhere, but relevant to the philosophy and mission of the farm.

Recipes: The Recipe Collection will call attention to specific recipes, which use vegetables, greens and herbs as they are available over the season; also, a collection of recipes contributed by the Veggie Co-op members over the past ten years.

The farm uses a Steri Light ultra-violent water filtration system.

Instead of manure, the farm uses soy, crab and kelp meal for building soil and green mulches such as clover, oats and rye. Plants are sprayed regularly with fish oil emulsion and compost tea, which keeps them nourished and healthy.

Delivery available to St. John's and surrounding areas (minimum purchase required).

Free Food If you or a loved one suffer from serious illness that requires you to consume Organic Produce, and you can't afford it.

Weeders Wanted (BYOW) Weeders can be paid in fresh produce. Minimum 4 hours. For more information E-mail us!
