Welcome to Ignatius Farm!


Since 1913, Ignatius Farm has served as the well of sustenance for the Jesuit community in the region. In the last 20 years, Ignatius Farm has evolved to become a model for organic agriculture and the mentoring of organic growers.

imageIgnatius Farm provides fresh, local, organic vegetables and fruits to the broader community through our Community Shared Agriculture program, to restaurants, and through special orders. Located at the northern perimeter of Guelph, Ontario we bridge the urban with rural, and invite our surrounding community to visit and get involved with their local farm. We grow over 60 types of vegetables and fruits, feeding roughly 1000 people each week of harvest.

Our operational farm offers to retreatants, eaters, gardeners, and visitors the opportunity to connect with our land. We practise relational farming and encourage you to connect with Ignatius Farm for:
