Amaranth

Vegetables, Apples, Corn, Eggs, Poultry, Raw wool

Amaranth Springs, situated just N-W of Orangeville, is a family farm that grows high quality fresh produce, eggs and poultry (chicken, duck, goose, and turkey). The diverse selection of farm products available at Amaranth Springs is a reflection of our organic farm management. In nature, plants capture the sun’s energy, fueling the growth of animals which then cycle nutrients back to plants. All of our farm fields and livestock are managed without the use of synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides, and our pastures are flourishing with native birds and insects. Our products are avaiable at our farm and we welcome you to come visit us. CSA shares will be available starting in 2012.
