Our farm is located in Middleville, ON about 40 minutes outside of Ottawa.  Chef Natasha LeBlanc and her husband Brian Faraday grow non-certified organic fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Natasha uses her culinary skills to create high quality preserves.  You can find us at the Carp Farmers Market.  We strive to connect local farmers and craftsman in the Lanark County. We rely on Springdale farm maple, Misissippi Berries, McGregors, and other small farms to supply what we are unable to produce ourselves.  We have also partnered with Stalwart brewing co., Calabogie Brewing co. and Top shelf distillery.  We have done this to create an exciting line of preserves which are enhanced by craft beer or alcohol.

We are a young, first generation farm who simply want to bring delicious and healthy food to the people. Everything we raise and grow we do it as close to nature's way as possible. As we say, "growing naturally".

We do not use herbicides or pesticides. We raise our animals outdoors at pasture, or at the very least, with significant access to grass, sunshine, and fresh air. 

We raise and grow chicken, turkey, quail, eggs, garlic, garlic scapes, garlic scape based preserves and jarred good.

Swallowtail Farm is a family farm-based small business. 

Ali Gangnier Ross and Glenn Gangnier along with our children began our adventure at Swallowtail Farm on the Scotch Line near Perth almost 10 years ago.

Our home farm location has recently changed locations to 2191 Bathurst 5th Concession where we focus on growing great garlic.

For more than 10 years we have been committed to growing organic, award winning heirloom garlic, for planting (seed garlic) or culinary purposes (table or eating garlic). We also offer delicious garlic sauces, spreads, pestos and organic garlic powders and spice blends. We typically grow 10 varieties of hardneck and softneck garlic.

You'll find us at the farm, farmers market or a garlic festival near you.

You pick the tree and we cut it for you – it can’t be fresher than that!  Call ahead and plan your visit starting December 15.

We plant two trees for every one we sell to keep our commitment to the environment.

Garlic is king in Dave Cornell's garden.
Sure, he grows a wide range of other crops such as asparagus, tomatoes, green beans and rhubarb, but garlic is his primary focus - 3000 plants covering 13 different varieties.
While Dave has been an avid gardener for 40 years, it was only 20 years ago that he started growing garlic and that was just as a lark to see if he could do it. He had been moose hunting with some buddies when the topic turned to growing garlic and Dave took up the challenge of seeing if he could grow it.
"It started out as a hobby and turned into an obsession" is how Dave describes his two decades of growing garlic. Dave sells directly at farm gate as well as at the Eastern Ontario Garlic Festival held in Verona and the Lanark County Harvest Festival, located at Beckwith Park. His daughter Donna Chute uses his garlic to make jellies such as balsamic fig, cranberry onion and roasted garlic jellies - all marketed under the Ashton Station name.
The flavours of the individual varieties range from mild to strong, some bulbs contain many cloves, others have fewer but larger cloves. "I specialize in the hotter varieties of garlic," Cornell says, stating that this is where the market is these days.
Growing garlic on the scale that Dave does is virtually a full time job during the growing season because of the weeding, watering and fertilizing involved. Dave is a passionate organic gardener and while he is not certified, he does everything organically. He has four compost bins which provides him with compost. He also uses sheep manure and bone meal for fertilizer as well as grass clippings for mulch. 

After close to two decades of successful farming near Iroquois, Ontario, John Weatherhead severed roots and in the Spring of 2014 relocated to the Perth area.
