FRESH VEGETABLE & HERBS FROM OUR FARM TO YOUR DOOR IN THE GREATER TORONTO AREA
This is an opportunity to join our "farm to door" fresh herbs and vegetable program, (limited to the Greater Toronto Area because of our freshness promise we will physically deliver our produce from the farm to your door within hours of harvesting).
Delivery begins in the third week of June depending on which produce you choose.
Gabriel's Acres was started 5 years ago by Tony Ramdeen as a small experimental farm. He started by growing things he liked to eat, but did not want to buy from the store such as Callaloo, Okra, a variety of hot and sweet peppers, herbs and a variety of tomatoes.
He started sharing the excess with family and friends, and soon experimental farming became ambitious farming. In 2015 he expanded his land size to 1 acre and was pleased with the public acceptance of his produce.
In 2016 his operation grew to 3 acres. The yield was superb and his customer base grew. Long after the crops were gone people were still placing orders.
Later that same year, he took to the streets to find restaurants who would purchase his produce straight from the farm to their doors and was pleased with the interest level and promised business. Adding the restaurant interest to his individual customers Tony envisions a bright and prosperous 2017 and took his greatest ambitious leap to 15 acres.
All the ground work has been done, land secured, business plan made, equipment secured, seeds and supplies purchased and seeding has started in green houses.
One of Tony's passion is youth mentorship. He wants to see young people making a living instead of playing video games and wants to do an outreach for interested youth to be a part of his farming initative. He is interested in getting youths who want to pursue farming as a future career to work with him during the summer.
Funds from this campaign will assist with transportation and housing for those not living in the community where the farm is situated, as well as to ensure the workers get paid on time as farming pays out at the end of the season.
Funds are needed to begin our planting season in the second week of May or as soon as the soil is tillable.
Your support of this campaign will mean a lot to Gabriel's Acres as it will assist in ensuring the next generation of farm workers will get firsthand experience as they assist with planting, tending, and reaping of crops
Please assist us in having a great harvest.
A TREMENDOUS THANK THANK YOU
