A closer look at ClearWater Farm In Georgina
Added on 10 June 2021
Everything we do at ClearWater is with the health of our watershed and the land in mind. Through applying regenerative agriculture practices on this heritage property, on the shores of Lake Simcoe in Georgina, farmers grow vegetables that are healthy for you - and the planet. For kids in the 'wonder years', aged 7 to 12, ClearWater has morphed it's onsite children's programs to an online interactive site: clearwaterkids.org. Here, families can learn about how to connect with their own little patch of nature at home with fun games and interactive learning activities. The goal is to get kids excited to get away from screens and explore outdoors. As a not for profit, the Ontario Water Centre, that runs ClearWater Farm, partnerships, supporters, and community are the keys to success. Our supporters are people who care about access to local food, and with their donations we are entering our 6th year.
Although the pandemic has restricted our onsite programs, our farmers continued to grow! That gave us the ability to create the Share Your Food Program that provided 1,245 food baskets to struggling families in the past year.
ClearWater Farm has a variety of leafy greens on the Market including Kale, Lettuce, and Swiss Chard.
