Seedlings, vegetables, field crops.
Grown in Niagara and Hamilton.

A family-run Ontario grower. Our Niagara-on-the-Lake greenhouse raises vegetable, herb, and flower seedlings for the spring planting season — wholesale by the tray, retail through partner garden shops. Through summer and fall the same greenhouse produces vegetables, sold direct from the farm and through a small number of partner grocers. In 2026 we're adding 65 acres of Roma tomatoes and Music garlic on open field in Hamilton.

What's growing in the greenhouse this year.

25 varieties raised for the spring planting season — sown from February, ready to ship from March, and out the door by early summer. Wholesale orders ship by the tray; partner shops carry singles for home growers. The trays that stay with us go into production for our own greenhouse-grown vegetables, sold through summer and fall.

65 acres in Hamilton, starting this year.

After five seasons running the greenhouse, the operation is moving into field crops at scale. Hamilton fits the brief — good soil, fair rent, close enough to keep both sites on the same operations rhythm. Year one is Roma tomatoes and Music garlic; a third crop is on the bench for 2027 once the first field season shows us what it should be.

Roma tomatoes

Paste tomatoes for fresh-market and processing buyers. First harvest expected late July 2026.

Music garlic

Hardneck, large cloves, strong flavour. Planted October 2026 for July 2027 harvest. Pre-orders open in spring.

About us.

Ontario Veggies is a family-run grower. We started in 2021 with a five-acre greenhouse in Niagara-on-the-Lake and a single objective: raise vegetable and herb seedlings for the regional garden shops that kept asking us where to source them. Five seasons in, our seedlings reach home growers through partner shops across Niagara and the GTA and ship wholesale by the tray to other small growers.

The same greenhouse runs through the rest of the season as a production house — the trays we keep grow into the vegetables we sell direct from the farm and through a small number of partner grocers.

2026 marks our expansion into open-field production: 65 acres in Hamilton, planted to Roma tomatoes and Music garlic. It's our first field season — we'd rather be upfront about that than overstate it. Year two and beyond will be shaped by what year one teaches us.

Garden shops interested in stocking our seedlings, grocers looking to carry our greenhouse vegetables, buyers looking for field crops, or anyone curious about the operation can reach us by email — that's the fastest route during season.

How to reach us.

Email is fastest. During season (Feb–Oct) we read everything the same day. The office line is best for pop-up schedule, pickup times, and anything time-sensitive.
