Agro-tourism Niagara

Niagara Organic Growers promote organic growing methods in the Niagara Region and feature a listing and map of participating Certified Organic or environmentally sustainable Farms offering everything from Organic Fruit and Produce, Herbs, Meats and even Wine.

I was sure something like this existed and am sure glad to have found it… Agro-tourism Niagara put out this handy guide that shows, in a map style, where some of the region’s farms, vegetable stands and nurserys are located: Link to pdf

After looking at the ‘circuit’ more closely, it seems a lot of places are by appointment only but there seem to be enough that aren’t to make a whole afternoon out of it. hmm… definatly something to do in maybe mid-July when we can pick our raspberries, blueberries and pears.

A similar brochure I found on the Agro-tourism Niagara site is a listing of Niagara’s organic growers - farms where you can buy organic products - ranging from wines to fruits & vegetables and everything in between: link to pdf brochure map

Niagara Local Food Cooperative

Although they charge a lifetime membership fee of $50 for consumers, I think it’s well worth it… just think about all the benefits! … not to mention all the unique items not available anywhere else at reasonable prices:  Niagara Local Food Cooperative.
