ABOUT THE FARM
Joyfully Organic Farm is a skilled and successful 100% Certified Organic + Regenerative vegetable farm in the Greater Toronto Area. Grown by a passionate team of young farmers, Joyfully Organic Farm grows a huge array of over 50 types of farm fresh vegetables. We have a deep love of amazing food + strong farming practices. We have a large community of customers who share our love of eating well. We provide food for prominent Farmers Markets in Toronto, a large CSA, and wholesale relationships to local food purveyors.
Style of farming
We practice an innovative model of farming that focuses on lean operation efficiencies, bio-intensive planting, high yields per acre, multi-succession planting and laughing a lot. Now in our 12th year of vegetable production, we operate across 4 production vegetable fields, a nursery green house, in-field caterpillar tunnels, and a vibrant cut flower field. The farm maximizes the efficiencies of two unique and distinct farm production systems. Some crops are grown on a 30 inch bed system with the use of walking tractors and managed with hand tools. Most of our other crops are grown in a high yield, bio-intensive tractor-based system designed by our farm, that retains the strengths and efficiencies of the smaller tool production system, but leverages the efficiency of farming with tractors.
We are incredibly proud of our growth and the success we’ve achieved. As we continue to expand, we’re looking forward to adding a new, passionate member to our team.
