Local Foods
As an active member of the Food Matters Coalition, Transition Brockville provides this Local Foods directory in support of sustainable, healthy lifestyles.
This directory is weighted toward locally-owned-and-controlled operations in Brockville and surrounding areas. For those growing their own gardens, it provides links to businesses selling seeds and seedlings as well as links to numerous How-To sites.
Your assistance in maintaining this directory — with additions, corrections, deletions — is greatly appreciated. Please contact editor@transitionbrockville.com
