Rowe Farms Blog

It’s time to make summer even sweeter! This week on the blog, we’re introducing you to My Sweet Sweet World—an artisan chocolate-maker that produces an exceptional product right here in southern Ontario.

While every long weekend is something to look forward to, the July long weekend feels extra special to a lot of Canadians. We’re so fortunate to live in this beautiful country, and grateful for all it has to offer.

When it gets this hot, we do everything we can to keep our homes cool and comfortable—and that means leaving the oven and stove top off as much as possible. Nobody needs extra heat on days like this! Grab an ice cold drink, fire up the BBQ and keep those high temps outside, friends.

Traditional Father’s Day celebrations often include a backyard BBQ—a great idea, if you ask us! Here are a few thoughts ahead of the weekend—we hope to see you in Guelph or at one of our Toronto retail locations soon.

With Father’s Day coming up in less than two weeks, we’ve got steak on our minds. (And Ontario pork, fresh local produce, and all of the other delicious things we’ve got in stores and online). If you haven’t started planning your Father’s Day weekend yet, consider this your official reminder!

Between the May long weekend, these gorgeous late spring days, the delicious Ontario produce we’ve been enjoying lately and plenty of home-cooked meals cooked on the BBQ, it’s beginning to feel a lot like summer here in southern Ontario. June is just days away and by this time next month, we’ll be enjoying the Canada Day long weekend. There’s a lot going on in the interim—here are a few tips and reminders to help you get ready for summer. We hope to see you at one of our retail locations in Guelph or Toronto soon!

The first long weekend of the season is finally here, and we’re ready to enjoy it! The current forecast has us feeling pretty optimistic (it’s calling for some clouds, but no rain) and our fingers are crossed for the kind of beautiful late spring weather that calls for a hammock or Muskoka chair. After all, there’s only so much yard work a person can do!

However you celebrate, Rowe Farms has everything you need for that delicious Mother’s Day brunch or dinner. Here are a few Mother’s Day notes from our team—we hope to see you soon!

But there’s another awesome local product we haven’t talked about much lately: Ontario lamb.

Last week on the blog, we talked about some awesome granola from a local food producer.
