Cameron Family Farm

One of the mainstays of Farmers Markets everywhere is the family farm, and at both the Moncton Farmers Market Co-op and at the Dieppe Farmers Market, Cameron Family Farm is one of the most popular purveyors of fresh produce, locally grown and nurtured to perfection. Bringing the pick of the season to area patrons, Cameron Family Farm carries a number of seasonal items featuring fruit and vegetables in rotation as they mature in the garden. There are four kinds of corn, four varieties of potatoes, pumpkins, summer squash, beans, peas, broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, beets and beet greens, onions, carrots, zucchini, and pickling cucumbers, and as this article is being written, there are tomatoes ripening on the vine! With freshness a definite plus for the customer, homegrown produce also has the benefit of being grown without harsh chemicals and other additives often found in more commercially grown fruit and vegetables.

In business for only three years now, Cameron Family Farm has seen an increase in demand among area market-goers for the flavourful nutritious offerings of the season. Located at 5866 Route 880, Lewis Mountain, NB, this enterprise started out as a hobby farm of sorts for Mr. Ewen Cameron, a first generation part-time farmer whose enthusiasm for what he does is succinctly summoned up in the words, "I enjoy what I do!" With an increasing demand for the farm fresh produce from this small farm since its inception, the foray into area Farmers Markets is the perfect conduit through which they can provide a superior quality of goods at the peak of their seasonal prime to the public. For more information, call 372-9086, email at ewen@nbnet.nb.ca, or visit them at both markets on Saturdays and enjoy the freshness of crisp and wholesome produce straight from the garden to your table - Thanks to Cameron Family Farm!
