"It`s funny to think about now, but there was a time when everyone knew exactly where their food came from. They knew the farmers by name, the land where they worked, and how their produce was grown. Nowadays, we shop blindly for the most essential resource in life: food. Let`s change that. When you shop at FarmBox, you know exactly who grows your food. You know where and how it was grown. You`ll feel safe knowing that your apple wasn`t processed in a factory by an anonymous source. It`s time to go back to the way things were. While working on a farm, Reisha experienced firsthand how difficult it is for a small-scale farmer to sell their harvest. As a nutritionist, she also saw an incredible lack of local and organic produce available to her clientele. Her dream was to find a solution to both problems and create a level of trust and convenience to bridge the gap between farmers and families. This was the spark that soon became FarmBox. Though it began with a structure similar to a more traditional CSA, FarmBox has now grown into an online grocery store working with over 100 partner farmers and artisans. All the produce is picked to order when it`s ripe and bursting with flavor. There`s nothing better than eating food that tastes the way it`s supposed to!"

2017 marked the proud 80th anniversary of the Kawartha Dairy Company, a 100% Canadian, 100% family owned company. For over 80 years, Kawartha Dairy has been proud to be a 100% Canadian-owned company, still operated by the same family that started it back in the beginning. Although it has grown tremendously from its early days, it remains headquartered in Bobcaygeon, Ontario, where it was founded. In 1937 Jack and Ila Crowe took a leap of faith and bought a small dairy in Bobcaygeon. Jack had learned the trade while working for Oshawa Dairy but the newly renamed Kawartha Dairy didn`t bear much resemblance to that larger big city firm. At that time it consisted of a small, simple three room building, where the cold storage area was cooled with ice cut from the lake.
