We thought long and hard about what YOU would find meaningful, practical and beautiful to give this holiday season from the farm. We also knew that our intention for the 2020 holiday season is to simplify and create wholeness with what we offer. So, without further ado, here is a preview of... 2020's Christmas Giving from the Farm

For those of you who live close to Ottawa Farm Fresh, did you know.. You have some choice when it comes to what's in your CSA Winter Bounty basket...

What a Great Carrot Harvesting Party! Thank you to our amazing farm friends who came out to harvest 2,400 lbs of carrots with us on Saturday. What a ton of fun! Next year, live music in the field, games and an organic food truck! In all seriousness, you have helped us get one step closer to sustainable farming for the fall and winter of 2020 & 2021. Thank you for your muscle power, your enthusiasm and your friendship.
