We focus on growing unique berries and small fruit, as well as nuts and cut flowers.

WHAT'S GOING ON
We operate a self-serve stand through out the spring - fall months.
At the stand we sell plants, fresh picked produce, cut flowers, duck eggs, and jams and jellies made from our berries.
Berries, Nuts, Produce
Along with blackberries and raspberries, we also grow an interesting assortment of less common berries including haskaps, currants, gooseberries, goumi, mulberries, and elderberries.
We also have some young nut trees including hazelnut, hickory, pecan, and heartnut.
Produce including asparagus, swiss chard, tomatoes, and snap peas are available seasonally at the roadside stand.
Duck Eggs
Our mixed flock of ducks is a fixture on the property. They eat a rich foraged diet along with lots of fruits & veggies. Watermelon and tomatoes are big favourites of the quack pack.
The eggs are large and packed with nutrients such as vitamins B12, A, and omega 3 fatty acids.
Their delicious eggs are offered at our farm stand when available.
