Green Circle Food Hub

About Green Circle Food Hub

The Green Circle Food Hub was formed by farmers in the early days of the 2020 pandemic, out of the tremendous need for collaboration and cooperation between farmers and food lovers. We believe that a community of local farmers and food lovers, can inspire the change needed for better health and wellness of people and our planet, one ingredient at a time. We are farmers, retailers and distributors of local, diverse ingredients operating out of a facility on Kendal Hills Farm in Orono, Ontario. 1. Aggregation: Bring together ingredients from multiple local farmers and producers in one location, making it more efficient for distribution. 2. Distribution: Manage the logistics of getting locally produced food from the farm to various outlets, such as grocery stores, farmers' markets, restaurants, schools, or directly to homes. 3. Market Access: Provide local farmers and producers with better access to markets that they might not be able to reach individually, thereby increasing their sales opportunities. 4. Community Engagement: Encourage connections between local producers and consumers, creating a sense of community around food, and supporting the local economy. 5. Education: Offer educational content and resources to raise awareness about the benefits of local food, sustainable farming practices, and the importance of supporting local agriculture. 6. Storage and Processing (not yet, but hopefully soon!): Provide facilities for storage and, in some cases, basic processing of local products to extend their shelf life or add value.
