Kind Organics

Newmarket, Ontario, Ontario,

Canada

We are a community minded, small organic farm 40 minutes north of downtown Toronto. We occupy two residences on a few acres. We grow and sell Salad Blends, Baby Greens, Edible Sprouts and Micro-Greens from the fields and from 7 greenhouses and a 500 sq ft indoor sprout growing facility, this year we will have about 3 acres in outdoor production. We grow our specialty crops to sell at farmers markets in Toronto and to high-end restaurants and caterers and natural food stores.

If you are interested in coming by for a visit or wish to spend a few weeks or more at our farm, we do offer a room and board exchange. Send us an email with a bit about yourself and your intentions.

We are open to short and extended visits in 2009 (after June 5th). Please contact us for detailed information, if you are emailing us please do not send us a one liner email. Tell us something about yourself, what your interests are, when you are considering coming, for what reason and for what time period.
