Is there any veterinarian control either before or after slaughtering to check if animals are safe for human consumption?
Yes! All slaughtering is done at government inspected plants, and an inspector is present during the process. All animals are inspected and must be approved.
Where are the farms that you partner with located?
Our poultry, pork, and eggs come from farms around the Floradale area (west of Elmira). The beef comes from a farm near Crosshill, as does the maple syrup. Lamb comes from a couple of farms around Wellesley. The honey comes from Millbank. Our canning and freezing of local fruits and vegetables is on a farm near Wallenstein. Our jams, pickles, juices, and spreads come from Wellesley and Elmira. These are all villages 30 — 60 kilometers north and west of Kitchener-Waterloo. Our farmers are Old Order Mennonites or Amish.
