Our Story
Our farm began in 1984 when our owner and head farmer Rob decided to experiment with growing one acre of cantaloupe. At the time, growing melons in Ontario was somewhat unusual! But in the end, the risk was worth it. Today, we have expanded to over 500 acres of produce ranging from rhubarb and asparagus in the spring, to strawberries and melons in the summer, to squash and pumpkins in the fall. We also produce a line of preserves including jams, jellies, pickles, sauces, and spreads all made fresh from our produce, as well as honey made from beehives located in our fields.
We sell our farm produce and preserves to a local grocery stores and retailers, at a variety of farmers’ markets across Southwestern Ontario, and we offer home delivery from May - November each season.
Finally, we have an on-farm retail location. The On-Farm Market and Pick-Your-Own Patch is located at 775530 Blandford Road Innerkip, Ontario. This is a space where agriculture can be experienced firsthand through berry, vegetable, and pumpkin-picking. This space also boasts walking trails, a kids play area, and snacks to enjoy during your visit.
Within this space is our Farm Kitchen. Here we craft homemade fruit pies and other baked goods, as well as several ready-to-eat meal options. All Farm Kitchen creations are made using our own produce. The menu will continue to expand over the coming seasons! Finally, this space will be utilized to host small events and on-farm experiences.
The newest addition to our Pick-Your-Own Patch is our Farm Food Truck! Again, all menu items are made from scratch, using our farm produce. You can look forward to tasting fresh cut fries, old-fashioned milkshakes, and Smash Burgers featuring our own Black Angus beef.
Overall, we only ever sell produce that we grow ourselves, and all value-added products are made from our produce as well!
