McGregor’s Produce

Jim & Ann, Ian & Deb, Cameron & Mandy McGregor

McGregor’s Produce has been growing and selling fruits and vegetables for the past 30 years on the farm that has been in the family since 1856. Ian and Deb, both Guelph agriculture graduates, along with Cameron and Mandy, represent the third generation who are currently following their father and grandparent’s family tradition.  Deb confidently states, “We hope to continue providing quality local food to consumers for generations to come.”

Kricklewood Farm

Brad Daily & Dale Horeczy

Brad and Dale started Kricklewood Farm in 2009 as a new farm on a historic farm property southwest of Ottawa. They both grew up in Manitoba where vast fields of sunflowers are a common, and beautiful, sight. The thought kept on going through their minds, and in their conversations, ‘why not here in the Ottawa area?’ And that set them on their quest to produce the finest quality sunflower oil. They seeded their first crop in 2012, and with their traditional cold press machine they are producing delicious, fresh and pure sunflower oil.

Products:	sunflower oil, goat milk soap, goat milk fudge
Location:	216 Brockville Street, Smiths Falls, ON K7A 3Z4

Jambican Studio Gardens

Colin Samuels and Kumiko Watanabe

Colin Samuels grew up on the farm where for the past several years he has been developing Jambican Studio Gardens. Dedicated to sustaining the availability of fresh, healthy produce and practicing proper stewardship of the land, he currently cultivates twelve acres of chemical-free flower and vegetable gardens, maintains a 20-acre woodlot and is developing plans for a greenhouse. Experimentation with growing tropicals such as cho-cho, sorrell, okra and hot peppers is a future goal.

Using mechanical cultivation, companion planting, cover crops/green manures biodiversity and habitat control for pest, weed and fertility management results in healthy local produce that Colin believes people desire and deserve. As well, he gratefully embraces the lifestyle that his occupation enables him to pursue.
