A Couple Acres of Paradise

Hello there everyone, and welcome to the first blog for Mansfield Heritage Farm.  I hope throughout the season and years we keep it interesting with updates, recipes and photos.

Mansfield Heritage Farm is a small mixed, organic farm in Mansfield, Ontario.  There is a two acre market garden, around 60 acres of hay and pasture for our sheep, meat and laying chickens, rabbits and bees.  There is also a small orchard and little building where our interns live and where different cooking and informational workshops are held.  It is a neat spot with beautiful views of the nearby escarpment, bush, and farmland.

As well as going to market, we also provide CSA shares.  Community Supported Agriculture, is a neat system of providing fresh local produce to customers.  A box of produce is put together each week of whatever is in season and given to a CSA member for a predetermined price.  But more info on that later.

Anyways, I hope you stay tuned, and if you have the opportunity, that you come check us out and see what we are doing on our little strip of paradise!
