The Economics of a Tomato
Have you ever picked up a beautiful, locally grown organic tomato at the Farm Store and wondered why it costs more than the one at the grocery store?
It's a fair question.
When prices are compared side by side, local organic produce can seem expensive. But behind every tomato is a story, and a lot more work than many people realize.

The Real Dirt on Organic at Ottawa Farm Fresh
Organic isn’t something we switch on or off, it’s in every choice we make. In the soil we build, the way we grow, and the care we take when no one’s watching. It’s less about a label, more about responsibility - to the land, the people behind the food, and the community around it. Because when you work with nature something beautiful grows.
