Fertile Ground is a small, ecological farm offering a bounty of vegetable goodness. If fresh, local & organic food gets you excited, we’ll probably get along.
We produce vegetables, eggs and garden seedlings at our farm in West Waterloo.
CSA Sign-Up is Open for our Main Season (June-Oct)
&
Seedling orders are live for May pick-ups
Farmer Angie started growing vegetables at Fertile Ground in 2008 with a wee 18 week CSA for 30 members. Since then, lots has changed, but much has stayed the same. We still use the same ecological farming methods and sell 100% locally in the Waterloo Region - mostly to our CSA members, but also to a few fabulous local restaurants and grocers. We still have a personal relationship with everyone who buys our food and we still do a LOT of our fieldwork by hand (too much!). BUT.... we're proud of some evolution too:
●
Our CSA now feeds over 300 households
●
Our staff are all paid a Living Wage
●
We feed people April-December
●
We distribute over $12K of free produce annually
●
We partner with Seeds of Diversity Canada to save rare seed
●
We've become Farmer-Led Researchers
Angie & team love getting our hands dirty and farming in ways that
root us in hope and cultivate our wonder. We'd love to share this with
you: get connected to your food story and be inspired to get excited
about your food!
