We've Made Some Changes
Harvest Hastings is growing and we’re updating our website. Things won’t be exactly where you remember them. We hope you’ll enjoy having a look around.
Elly Finlayson operates a vegetable and garlic farm at Railway Creek Farm south of the hamlet of Cooper, and only six minutes north of Madoc. Part of the farm is nestled between the old Bay of Quinte Railway line and the creek named Railway Creek. Elly has grown veggies and garlic since 1993.
In 2020, the veggie market gardens beds were brought back into production after several years of regenerating the soil, and the bioligical life within. All veggies are grown naturally using non-toxic methods, such as admending soil with compost, incorporating cover cropping, manure teas all the while minimizing tillage. Elly likes to grow all kinds of vegetables such as lettuce, arugula, napa cabbage, kale, beans as well as roots crops such as sweet carrots, beets and daikon radishes etc. Summer and Winter Squash, tomatoes and peppers and much more will be on the online store when in season.
Over the winter, Microgreens are produced weekly in an indoor vertical growing system. Sunflowers, peas and radishes micros are available to buy on the online store every week. Deliveries are made to Madoc and Tweed every Saturday morning all through the summer and winter months.
