About Holly Ray Farms

Holly Ray Farms (formerly Hilltop Pastures) is an organic mixed farm
business, located just outside of Stirling, Ontario. Owners, Lara and
Jamie were previously

operating an organic farm business near
Creemore, Ontario. Our mission is to create joy and health for our
customers by providing beautiful, nutritious, organic food with a
personalized experience. At Holly Ray Farms, we aim to grow the most
flavourful, nutritious food possible for our customers. As a fully
organic farm, we use no pesticides or herbicides in our gardens. All
of our seeds are organic and non-GMO, and include many heirloom
varieties unavailable even in organic grocery stores. We believe the
health of our vegetables depends directly on the health of our soil.
As such, we limit mechanization, performing as much of our farming as
possible by hand, to preserve the natural structure of the soil. We
use cover crops (green manures) and organic manure from our farm to
fertilize our soil. The fertility of our so
 il at Holly Ray Farms has been carefully and lovingly cultivated for
20 years. More…
