Although events and gatherings are cancelled, small farms and businesses – which are an integral feature of our communities – need our support now more than ever. They have formed a collective called York Farm Fresh, to work together to provide our community with healthy food, in a safe manner.
To assist our independent food providers in York Region, York Farm Fresh has put together a list of how its affiliate businesses are adapting their operations to meet the needs of consumers. Visit York Farm Fresh’s post about how their partners are adapting to the COVID-19 restrictions. Or, visit or call the farms directly for more information: www.yorkfarmfresh.com/covid-19
