From tiny seeds to little seedlings 🌱🥒

This week, the Farm School children helped plant their cucumber seedlings into the garden! Now comes the ongoing care — watering, checking on their growth, and patiently waiting for harvest season! ☀️🌿

One of our favourite parts of gardening with children is helping build a connection to the food on their plates… from seed, to garden, to shared meals 💚

The grill sizzling, kids running around barefoot in the backyard, and an extra day to soak up the sunshine ☀️🔥

The first long weekend of the warmer weather is always a busy one… which calls for easy grilled dinners! 🌭

What’s everyone been grilling this weekend? 👀

This is exactly why we opened the Farm Shop 💛

We wanted more than just a place to pick up eggs and meat 🥚🥓 We wanted a space where people could ask questions, meet the faces behind their food, and feel connected to their local community 🌾

There is such a disconnect between people and the food they feed their families, and we want our customers to know the farmers, growers, and local makers behind the products they’re bringing home 🚜🍯

The Farm Shop has become a space full of local food, small businesses, conversation, and community 🫶

And honestly… we think it has quite a bit of personality now 😅

It’s the weekend… pull those steaks out of the freezer! 🥩🔥

Good beef. Warm evenings. The sound of steaks sizzling on the Blackstone... 🤤

Grill season just hits different when you know your farmer 👌

🥚 Think your eggs are fresh? Think again!

In Canada, store-bought eggs can be 45–60 days old by the time they reach your fridge. 😳 At Duff Acres, our pasture-raised hens lay eggs that are collected within hours and guaranteed to be less than a week old, ensuring maximum freshness and longevity.

Our hens roam freely outdoors, scratching, dust bathing, and foraging naturally on grass, insects, and seeds — in combination with locally milled grains to ensure they receive a complete and balanced diet. This care and natural diet give eggs that are:
• Higher in omega-3s
• Packed with vitamins A, D & E
• Bright, golden yolks you can see and taste

Crack one open and taste the difference—fresh, nutritious, and raised with care! 💛

May the Fourth be with you ✨🐷

Rey & Wren have chosen their side…
and it involves snacks, sunshine, and a whole lot of mud 💦

We get asked all the time where our farm shop is… so we figured we’d send out our official welcome crew 🥰

You’ll find us tucked into a section of our garage — filled with farm fresh products and some pretty great local finds 🐓🥚🍯

If you pull in during our hours and the door’s closed, just ring the doorbell at the front door — we’ve probably run in for another round of snacks or popped out to do a quick bit of gardening 🌱

Come by and say hi! 👋
