LATEST FROM THE FARM — winter csa

It’s hard to believe it, but even here in Ottawa we can be eating a variety of organic local greens right through the winter. While most of the salad that you’ll find in the grocery store has travelled in excess of 4000 kilometers to get to your plate, ours has travelled less than 50 meters.

The leaves have changed colour, the temperatures are dropping, and soon enough there will be snow on the ground. That can all mean only one thing - Winter CSA is beginning! The first Winter CSA pick up is this Wednesday, Nov 3 from 2-7pm right here on the Farm.

When you sign up for the Ottawa Farm Fresh Winter Abundance CSA you will receive a weekly CSA basket of hearty winter vegetables to keep you warm and cozy through until New Year.

When the sun is high in the sky and the fields are bursting with summer abundance it’s hard to believe that winter is just around the corner. Here at the Farm preparations are well underway for the oncoming cold weather; the autumn crops are planted and soon enough we’ll start filling up the cold room with hearty root crops!
