Vegetable boxes

Jardins Bergeron Gardens is launching a subscription to a freshly harvested vegetable box. Our vegetables are grown by two brothers, Denis & Gilles Bergeron, in the Navan/Orléans area.  We use conventional growing methods, to ensure economic, social and environmental sustainability. Our practices include crop rotation, tunnel growing and manual weeding which reduces the use of synthetic components.  We are committed to providing a safe and healthy supply of fresh vegetables every week.  

The harvest subscription runs for 15 weeks, from July 13th to October 22nd, 2021. During this time, there is a weekly pickup of a fresh vegetable box at our farm, in Orléans. 

Pickup is contactless and can be on either: 

• Tuesdays between 12pm and 6pm or
• Fridays between 10am and 5pm 

We recommend that you bring your own bags and/or boxes, to reduce the use of plastic  If, you are unable to come that day, a friend or family member can pickup your box. Exceptions for vacations can also be requested by e-mail, at least one week in advance at bergeron.gardens@gmail.com. See details in Terms & Conditions.

The boxes are $30.00 each. Please notify us by e-mail 1 day in advance that you would like to purchase a box on any pick-up days, Tuesdays or Fridays. 

The weekly box contains a variety of vegetables grown on our farm. Every week, you can expect our specialty lettuce, along with other fresh seasonal vegetables. Refer to the list below to find out what’s in season.

One box feeds approximately 2 adults and 2 children.

Note that not all vegetables listed below will be included in the box each week. We want to provide as much variety as possible and will alternate vegetables weekly.
