Howpark Farms
Nestled on the eastern edge of the Brandon Hills, Howpark Farms is owned and operated by 4th generation farmers Ian and Linda Grossart and family. Our grass-fed, organically certified cattle are raised in our pastures and the entire herds’ diet includes only grasses, forage crops and legumes grown entirely on our farm. Our own breeding program and complete control over their diet considers every aspect of what makes ethically-raised, certified grass-fed organic beef that is both nutrient rich and distinctly flavourful, while also considering the environmental impact on the earth.
We also grow a variety of organic grains as part of our crop rotation and raise pasture chickens to assist us in our regenerative farming practices. As our climate changes so must our approach to food production. We take pride in helping with ongoing research in the fields of food production and regenerative agriculture.
Howpark Farms has been in the family since 1879 and was started by Ian’s Great Grandfather William Bertram. William homesteaded this location as it closely resembled his original family farm in Scotland, the namesake of this farm.
The farm has always been home to both livestock and grain, given the topography and native prairie that it contains. The most obvious distinguishing feature at Howpark is the western edge of our property which rises steeply into the natural wilderness setting of the Brandon Hills. This area is popular with nature-lovers and recreational enthusiasts who love the picturesque features of the terrain.
We believe that regenerative agriculture is the way of the future and continue to use progressive farming practices that will ensure the farm will be viable both finacially and ecologically for generations to come.

Natural Collective
At Natural Collective, we’ve decided to dedicate our time and resources to ensuring that people in Winnipeg and the surrounding area have a local option for all of their vegetable needs. We run a CSA, sell at various Farmers’ Markets and do restaurant supply.
We are situated 30 minutes south of Winnipeg, Manitoba, just outside of Niverville and on Treaty 1 Territory, our goal is to grow and harvest the best food possible for you to eat. Using no pesticides or herbicides, we want to learn from nature what it’s been doing from the start, and bring you quality vegetables and herbs from origins you can trust.
With enough support we hope to further diversify and begin to build a stand-alone, fully functioning diet that you can count on to feed your family. If that sounds like something you could get behind, give us a shout – Join the Collective.

Loewen Homestead
Ten years in the making – that’s how long we have helped our land undergo a transformation from traditional large scale farming into a chemical free fertile Red River Valley soil again. We don’t use chemical fertilizers or sprays. The land is breathing and functioning like it should. Organic inputs have helped this land produce some of the best tasting and healthiest food you can find.
The Loewen Homestead is also home to free-range animals such as egg-laying hens and roaster chickens. The animals’ diets include fresh spinach, beet tops, Swiss chard and corn. We also add flax and linoleic acid to the layer’s diet to boost omega 3 content in the eggs.
We deliver the food to your door.

Prairie Sweetheart Honey
Prairie Sweetheart Honey is a small-scale apiary producing natural, high-quality honey from urban hives located in the Charleswood area of Winnipeg, MB.
Happy, healthy bees are our number one concern. We care for and protect these pollinators because bees play a vital role in the balance of nature; especially in the pollination of many farming initiatives, community gardens, orchards and seed industries.
Our honey has a unique and delicious taste because of its proximity to Assiniboine Forest, one of Canada’s largest urban nature parks. Also nearby, the Leo Mol English Gardens has local and imported plants blooming throughout the growing season and the Assiniboine River has a large variety of flora found along the banks.
We believe that small farming initiatives are key to a greener and brighter future. Prairie Sweetheart Honey is one small part of the bigger picture.

J&A Farms
J & A Farms is owned and operated by Joe and Alison. We are located in the RM of Brokenhead east of Beausejour.
We relocated in 2017 from Winnipeg with our children. We found our 40 acre dream to settle on, and we couldn’t be happier.
The inspiration to farm came from our families. Joe’s grandfathers both had farms in Italy and his parents never went a year without a garden.
Alison’s great grandfather owned a farm in Manitoba. Her great grandmother in Ontario had a large garden that fed the people in her boarding house.
Being steeped in tradition gives us the passion to continue and carry on. We have a firm belief, as did our families, to grow food naturally and without the use of synthetic chemicals.
We are excited to announce we are offering CSA shares for this season as well you will find us at the Lac Du Bonnet farmers market every Saturday from May through September.
We are excited for what the seasons bring and look forward to sharing all of our experiences with you!
*Covid update, all our CSA shares will be supplied in 1 time use cardboard box, as well we have increased daily cleaning off all supplies and hand washing on the farm. For our markets we will offer debit and credit card payments to help reduce contact.*
