If you live in Brantford or are simply visiting for the day, choosing to buy locally grown food offers so much more than just great tasting, fresh food. Buying locally strengthens the local economy, supports family farms, provides delicious, "fresh-from-the-field" foods for everyone to eat, and helps foster a sense of community.
So taste the difference fresh makes and indulge in some of our finest home-grown fare at local farm markets and farm-gate establishments. Here, you can sample everything from locally grown asparagus and berries to local beef and honey. Buying local never tasted so good!
Where can I find locally grown food?
There are many outlets to choose from within the city of Brantford and surrounding areas. For starters, pick up a copy of “Buy Local! Buy Fresh!” which is a brochure that highlights farm-gate sites in Brantford and Brant County. You can find it at the Brantford Farmers’ Market and the Visitor & Tourism Centre, as well as many other locations around the city and county. All it takes is an afternoon drive through the countryside to discover what a great asset local farm-gate establishments are to the local economy.
