Mulberry Moon Farm
Mulberry Moon Farm is a small-scale farm growing a wide diversity of organic vegetables in Strathroy. The farm sells high-quality, picked-to-order vegetables through customized veggie boxes to consumers and local restaurants and at farmers' markets and their on-farm store. Their mission is to grow a diverse family farm that is sustainable ecologically and economically, respecting, protecting, and working with the natural environment while supporting the local economy and work with the community to build a secure local food system.
Financing Need
Mulberry Moon Farm relocated their farm operations to their new location in Strathroy and received a loan from the Fund to dig a new well, build a packhouse and purchase equipment to kick start their operations within their first season.
