Forsythe Farms CSA

Imagine what life would be like if local farmers in your area got together once a week, bringing with them their finest crops at the peak of the growing season.

Imagine them carefully selecting each item with you in mind, taking the time to piece together a bag of fresh in-season fruits and vegetables just for you. Save time wondering what is at it's peak of freshness.

Imagine how exciting each share bag would be as you discover new recipes, explore new varieties, find new favourites and become a better chef at home. Be part of our facebook CSA group sharing your creations.

Farm Fresh Eggs Share
We have a small flock of egg-laying hens for a source of farm-fresh eggs. Unfortunately, due to government regulations, we can only sell these at the farm.
Farm-fresh eggs are delicious and make a great add-on to your CSA fruit and veggie share.
We have partnered with White Feather Farms in Raglan as our source of fresh large brown eggs for our egg shares. This enables us to provide you with the freshest eggs possible at our off-farm pickup sites.
White Feather Farms has an on-farm, Federally inspected grading station and grade the eggs they produce. We pick them up the week they are laid right from their farm.
Their hens are raised in a friendly housing habitat with 24-hour access to homegrown feed, water, light, and ventilation. Perch bars and nesting pads allow them to practice their natural behaviors free from predators. A clean, litter-free environment keeps them healthy, so no antibiotics are used. Available with your CSA produce share membership.

Testimonials
"Love the free access to the farm in addition to the produce."
“I love picking up my share at the farmers market, chatting with your super helpful staff and seeing all the fresh produce available!"
"Very pleased with the variety. Friendly atmosphere when picking up my share"
“Being able to swap produce for others. Great feature!!!! Feel good supporting local farmers "
"My husband and I have participated in both the spring-fall share program as well as the winter share program. We have absolutely loved it! It is so exciting when you get the weekly emails telling you what you will be getting in your share that week. As a young, recently married couple we have enjoyed discovering how to cook vegetables that we may never have tried when walking through the grocery store. The CSA program has expanded our recipes as well as helped us eat more fruits and vegetables on a regular basis. The staff at Forsythe are amazing and always willing to meet our needs and make adjustments to our share. The fruits and vegetables always come fresh and are delicious! We have never been disappointed."
“I loved the fact that we were eating food that was produced so close to home and in a small way supporting our neighbours."
"You folks do a great job I’m so fortunate to have found this program because I think it’s important to support farmers and eat in seasons locally"
“The quality and quantity always exceeds expectation and so thankful we have access to local food! See you next season!"
I just want to say how much I have enjoyed the winter share program. It has been so much fun to get my children involved. My 3 year old daughter has been responsible for putting our cooler out every other Wednesday and she and my 7 year old son rush eagerly to see what is in there in the afternoon. We all really enjoyed the puffed wheat both as a snack on it's own and in an old family recipe for Puffed Wheat Cake that my great-grandmother used to make. Very impressed!
I would like to let you know that by choosing to by locally I am getting fresher produce. It lasts much longer and the flavor is usually better. It is very convenient to have it appear at my door.
Also I find that I am going to the grocery store less often so in the long run I am saving money.
“We are coming up to our 5th year with CSA, which is delivered to my work place. Daniel arrives and everyone at work is excited to see what is in the share that week. It's always a surprise and my family is excited when I arrive home with all the goodies. Daniel always has a smile on his face which makes the day even brighter. Your doing a wonderful job Daniel and you are always providing amazing service.”
Amazing - great product, great people and a seamless accommodating process. Not being able to get the share every week on the same day worried me a bit, but Daniel 100 accommodated the situation and went above in my mind by allowing substitutions of things I wasn't a big fan of in some weekly shares.
Forsythe Farms CSA was created by Daniel Forsythe in 2012, shortly after he finished high school. It was a way for him to be a part of the farm but have his own enterprise.
Daniel is the second generation of the Forsythe Family Farms 2009 Inc. He is passionate about the success and growth of the local farm and community. He is now in Belleville working in the social services area aiding those that are homeless and previously incarcerated. He enjoys being involved in various local outreach programs. In his spare time, he enjoys time with his young family taking them to visit local farms.
Daniel has handed over the management of his CSA to his parents at Forsythe Family Farms 2009 Inc while he pursues his post-secondary education and raises his family. His goal is to use his entrepreneurial experience gleaned from his time on the farm and his CSA to work with young people helping them build skills to succeed in life.
