On Farm Market
What Do We Offer?
Our on Farm Market Opens June 10th from 10am-3pm for our Open House. Join us for a tour of our fields and many greenhouses and ask farmer Ted how it’s grown. Enjoy refreshments, kids activities and of course, purchase a bundle of great organic veggies to take home.
From June 8th-October 28th, join us Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10am to 6pm for a great selection of in season organic veggies grown right here in Zephyr! We believe organic is the best for both people and planet, and we strive to also make these veggies accessible to more families through affordable pricing. Most items are $3 or $4, and are always fresh and flavourful. We will also have a selection of local, organic fresh cut flowers and organic-fed pastured eggs, as well as other locally produced goods. As a low-tech, market, we ask that you bring some cash for your purchases.

Frequently asked questions
Zephyr is too far away! Where Else can I get your produce?
Check out the Newmarket Farmer’s Market on Saturdays, have our produce delivered through Mama Earth Organics in much of the GTA, or check out other local CSAs, some of which carry our products.
Organic CSAs:
What items can I expect to receive?
The best way to anticipate this is to look at our growing season chart or our blog, where we have documented what went into each type of shares last year. Please note the produce changes widely with our growing season which means lots of variety.
Do I have to be home to receive delivery?
No – we come by at about the same time each week so you know when to expect us. We will knock/ring your doorbell and will leave your box wherever you ask us.
What happens if it will be a while until we get home to receive delivery?
We recommend you leave out a large cooler with some ice, especially on summer days. Alternatively we can put your basket in a lean-to or garage if you provide a code. Some people even ask a neighbour to keep the veggies cool inside for them until they return.
What happens if we are away/go on vacation one week?
Simply email us about a week before and we will put your delivery on hold that week, and send you an extra basket on a different week. We can deliver your veggies to a friend instead, or you can even get farm store credit.
What happens if we move during the farm share season?
If you are moving to one of our many delivery areas, we can simply change your delivery address (your delivery day may change with the new route). Just email us at least a week ahead to let us know. If you are moving out of the delivery area, we can refund you for the remainder of the season minus a small admin fee of $15.
What happens if Farm Share doesn't work for my family?
Our farm shares come with a satisfaction guarantee. First of all, we can adjust your order to make it larger/smaller or make changes to it to suit your family’s needs. If adjusting will not work for you, we are happy to refund you for the rest of the season minus a $15 admin fee.
