Beet - Detroit Dark Red
$5.00 / bunchAn heirloom nearly as old as this farm. Detroit Dark Red gives smooth, uniform roots with deep unzoned flesh — sweet, firm, and honest. Good roasted, better pic
Kale - Dwarf Scotch
$5.00 / bunchTight, heavily curled blue-green leaves on short stems — the old-fashioned kale, and still the one that holds up best on the plate. Those curls catch dressing,
Cabbage Green
$5.00 / eachThe everyday head, and the most useful vegetable in the fridge. Firm, heavy, and tightly wrapped, with crisp pale leaves that shred fine for slaw and hold their
Cabbage Red
$5.00 / eachDenser and firmer than the green, with a peppery bite and colour that runs all the way through the leaf. Slice it thin and it's the brightest thing on the plate
Cabbage Flat Dutch (Kraut)

Onion Spanish Red - Roja

Tomato Heirlooms
$5.00 / 500 mL basketA mixed basket of the tomatoes that were grown before shipping and shelf life decided everything — chosen for flavour and for the jobs they're actually good at.
Tomato - San Marzano
$10.00 / BoxThe sauce tomato worth waiting for. Long, narrow plum fruit with thick walls, few seeds, and little water in them — which means it cooks down to something rich
Carrots - Nante

Hot Pepper Mixed
$5.00 / BasketPulled from a collection of about seventy varieties, so no two baskets are quite the same. Expect real heat — habanero and Scotch bonnet in the mix, with the fr

A real working garden—not a showroom.Why Humble?
We grow the soil first.
The Humble Garden is a small family farm with generations of experience and an eye on every individual plant.
We grow without chemical fertilizers or chemical pesticides, without herbicides and without hormones. Instead, we feed the soil life, tend crops by hand and bring life back to land that was once farmed with glyphosate—one healthy row at a time.
Old-school care
Hand cultivation, hand harvest and a close eye on every crop.
Living soil
Organic worm castings, hen manure and insect frass feed the soil naturally.
Regeneration
Cover, diversity and patient work that gives the land life again.
A farming family
