Eating local with Rock Garden farms in Caledon East



With summer quickly approaching you, like many other families, may be looking towards the warmer weather with hopes of getting active, discovering new local places and experiencing some adventure with the whole family.

One of our favourite things to do in the spring and summer is visiting farmers markets, experimenting with new recipes, and dining al fresca. Especially with the recent emphasis that the public has been putting on healthy eating, local eating, and the reduction of our carbon footprint as we head into the future; it's nice to know that there are businesses out there that are working diligently to spread awareness and give the public access to the tools and education they need to make that happen.

 

One of our all-time favourite spots? Rock Garden Farms in Caledon East. Family owned and operated since 1988, this local treasure offers fresh produce, baked goods and confections, a blossoming garden centre where you can purchase fresh flowers of all kind, and much more. In July, you can even pick your own deliciously sweet strawberries.  Rock Garden Farms also offers seasonal promotions, special events and more, providing fun for the whole family. 

For more information on Rock Garden Farms, visit their website.



This summer, why not try to make a point of introducing more fresh, local grown foods to your weekly meal plan. Not only can you taste the difference, you also get the peace of mind of knowing that you're contributing to a healthier, greener, and environmentally responsible community. Every little bit counts!

All the best,
