About Find a Farmer
FindaFarmer.ca is a Canada-wide directory that makes it effortless to find real local farmers, discover farmers’ markets, and discover and plan authentic farm-stay experiences. We bring consumers and producers together on one simple, trustworthy platform—so you can see what’s in season, who grew it, and how to buy or visit.

To strengthen Canada’s local food systems by helping small and mid-sized farms thrive—through easy search, story-rich farm profiles, and practical filters for pickup, delivery, on-farm shops, U-pick, CSAs, seasonal events, and more.

How It Works
Built in Canada, For Canadians

Trust & Verification
“Verified by Find a Farmer” means we’ve completed basic checks to reduce dead ends and improve quality: active contact details, location, and up-to-date profile content with clear buying/booking information.
Practices (e.g., Organic, No-spray) are self-declared—look for badges and details in each profile and contact the farm with questions. We’ll keep improving verification with community input and guidance from networks like OCO and EOAN.
Our Story
FindaFarmer.ca began with a simple question: “Why is it so hard to find local farms and markets nearby?”
Great food and unforgettable rural experiences were scattered across social posts, handwritten signs, and word-of-mouth.
We built FindaFarmer.ca to bring it all together in one friendly place—spotlighting the people who grow our food, their values, and the paths to visit.
