Farm Happenings for November 26, 2020

Posted on November 22nd, 2020 by Chris DeVries

This past weekend we attended an amazing Christmas market at Wildflowers farm.  Even though it wasn't a major grocery shopping event, many people appreciated getting our veggies as part of their Christmas shopping experience!  

"From Here to There" cookbooks are on sale now for $20.  If you haven't checked these out yet, they are an amazing, professional cookbook put together by the St.Thomas Elgin Immigration partnership and our own Shao is featured in it.  They would make a great Christmas gift!

You can purchase one of our Common Ground Farm T-shirts for $15 from now until Christmas too!  We have Mens M, L and XL and Womens S, M and L sizes available (and one youth).  If you want a shirt, add it to your order and then email us with your size request.  If we run out of that size I will remove it from your order.  We currently have plenty of mens L and at least a few of all the other sizes.

Here's what we have on offer this week from off the farm:

  • Organic gala apples (3lb bag) from BC (Pfennings)
  • Organic ambrosia apples (3lb bag) from BC (Pfennings)
  • Organic spartan apples (3lb bag) from BC (Pfennings)

  • Great Lakes farms Honey Crisp apples (NOT ORGANIC)

  • onions: organic, Pfennings in Baden (near Kitchener)
  • mushrooms: organic from a producer near Leamington (from Pfennings)
  • Eggs! from Amish farms in the Aylmer area:  18 count small eggs.  These are fed GMO free but not necessarily organic feed.  They are all from 100 or less flocks on different farms, graded at Harold Stoll's farm.
