We purchased the 176 acre former beef operation in 2008 and began planting in 2009.  45 acres are tillable sand, loam and clay and the rest is primarily wetlands (feeding the Tay River Watershed) and mixed forest.
Greenwood Organics is committed to providing the local community with organic produce, especially heritage varieties rich in taste and nutritional value-- nourishing the land and the community. Currently, 2 acres are under cultivation with half committed to green manures as part of the farm's crop rotation program. As well as garlic and the major root and annual vegetables, asparagus and raspberries have been planted which will be available in future years. We are certified organic by OC-Pro and are members of the Canadian Organic Growers, Ecological Farmers Association of Ontario and National Farmers Union.
Greenwood Organics sells at the Perth Market and can be found on the plates of the Fall River Restaurant.
