Elderslie Farm began as a blackberry and veggie-growing operation and sawmill/woodworks.
Through the years we have added blackberry you-picks, outdoor cafe, series of special events, farm-to-table dinners, local fine dining, private events, cheese and wine tastings.
Most recently, we’ve added Elderslie Creamery, Everyday Elderslie, evening patio service and an online shop.

Locally Grown
Our lettuce is grown by our family on a farm just outside of Derby (see the map on our home page). We sell locally and participate in local farmers' markets.
Pesticide, Insecticide Free
Enjoy your lettuce and just your lettuce: We do not use any harmful chemicals on our lettuce! This includes non-organic pesticides and insecticides. Your lettuce is the best and freshest it can be, without anything harmful added.
Nutritional and Delicious
Our lettuce provides many essential nutrients and vitamins including (but definitely not limited to) calcium, magnesium, iron, potassium, sodium, vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin K, riboflavin, niacin, fiber, and folate.
Available all year!
Because we grow our lettuce hydroponically, we are able to grow and sell our lettuce in all seasons, even in the summer, when the sweltering heat would normally kill traditionally-grown lettuce heads!
We care a lot about how our food tastes, so we scour the market to find the most delicious fruit and vegetable varieties to grow. Whenever we can, we grow from organic, heirloom seeds and root stock. We never use genetically modified organisms.
We are dedicated to growing fruits and vegetables in ways that don't damage the environment in which they grow or the people who consume them. Our fertilizers are always organic. We also avoid using poisons and toxins to control insects, weeds, and disease.
Farm founder Leah learned to garden from her father and originally used his old-timey methods. Over the years, we have adapted from more current and popular methods, like permaculture and hugelkultur. On any given year, you will find a variety of growing methods employed on the farm as we experiment, evaluate, and learn.
We believe that food grown locally, seasonally, and sustainably doesn't just taste better and isn't just more health inducing but is more humane and socially just, too. We hope you will appreciate the vision we have for our farm and that you will join us in making it a reality by purchasing your produce here.
