There are three generations living on the farm. We have begun learning from the previous farm families who lived here and next door, how they did things on the farm in the pioneer days, some precious knowledge that we would like to use and preserve. We grow and produce using organic and natural methods and ingredients. Our homes/home businesses are powered with solar electricity, and heated with wood and solar. We use hay mulch on vegetable gardens and fruit trees, using grass cut by hand scythes (Ethan, Robbie, and Gary), as well as hay and straw from neighbouring farms. We often have young adult helpers join us for a few months from the 'WWOOF' program ('Willing Workers on Organic Farms) to apprentice and live on the land in return for their help. Browse through our Products for Sale Ingredients All products and ingredients are 100% organic (many certified organic), and Fair Trade certified where applicable (chocolate and sugar). Vegetables, fruits, and herbs are grown organically on our farm, and bread ingredients are locally or regionally grown except for the seed & spices.

We always use crop rotation. Our root vegetables are stored in the original (refurbished) 100-year-old root cellar built into the hill, where they stay firm and fresh all through the winter. Our apples are stored in the old farmhouse cellar. Fruit juices are pressed in an old oak juice press, or made into apple/pear sauce, and are heated and processed into glass canning jars. We dry our some of our pears and apples in slices on screens in the house above the woodheatstove. Interesting Northern varieties of pear and apple trees, some heritage. 11 pear varieties, 8 apple varieties plus wild fruit trees. Additional Information 100% local, except the ingredients for the Fair Trade Chocolates made by Ben & Ethan Anderman. The sourdough breads are made by Ethan Anderman, from freshly hand- and stone-ground rye and spelt flours, grown in Eastern Ontario. Ben takes local nature photos and has them printed into notecards by Bayberry Lane Print Shop in Barry's Bay. The pears and apples for juice and vinegar are grown by Robbie and Ethan Anderman, with some help from Christina. Various vegetables are grown by the Anderman family, Gary Beckett, and Diana MacAuley. Salves, dried herbs, and tinctures are mostly made by Diana MacAuley, from homegrown & wildcrafted and organic ingredients. Robbie Anderman is a musician of many instruments, and his CD's are a co-operation with other local musicians, produced in the amazing eco-friendly 'Earth Ship Studio' near Killaloe. Highlights this Month Garlic Hemp Pesto!
