Our meats are sourced from family-owned farms across southern Ontario. We’ve carefully selected our farming partners to ensure that the meats are of premium quality, taste, and texture, and the animals are raised humanely. We’re very proud to support Ontario farmers and help sustain their family-owned businesses. Our food representatives will gladly tell you more about the local farms we work during your appointment. When you choose Farmway Foods, you can feel good about knowing exactly where your food came from – from Ontario farms to your table.

The cattle are raised humanely on local family-owned farms across southern Ontario. The cattle graze on grass for first two years, and are fed a grain and barley diet for the last three months. This specialized diet ensures optimal health and nutrition, while providing a perfectly marbled and juicy finish to the meat. The chickens, turkey, and pork are free-run, which means they’re allowed to roam and not kept in cages their entire lives. The fish are also wild-caught and not sourced from factory farms.

All farm animals are cared for regularly by animal nutritionists and veterinarians, and are naturally raised.
They’re also free of added hormones and antibiotics. Their health and wellbeing are top priorities.

At Farmway Foods, our meats are individually quick frozen (IQF) and individually vacuum-packed. Quick freezing greatly reduces the formation of ice crystals, which preserves the texture, flavour, and nutritional value of the meat. Traditional freezing methods result in large ice crystals, which creates a soggy texture, spoils the flavour and freshness, and decreases the nutritional value when thawed.

Individually vacuum-packed meat also maintains the quality of the meat and prevents freezer burn, dehydration, and reduces exposure to air that can speed spoilage. Our packaging allows you to benefit from higher quality meat, an extended shelf life, and reduced food waste. We make it easy and convenient to eat delicious local meats year-round!

Farmway Foods offers Ontario grass-fed beef, free-run chicken and turkey, pasture-raised pork, and wild-caught fish. You can also add your favourite brand-name pantry items and household essentials to your order for maximum convenience! You can explore our large selection of local meats on our website.

Our orders are customized to your family’s size, eating habits, and current grocery store budget. Your order is built around the amount and type of meat your family prefers. You can choose a variety of meats or focus on your favourites – the choice is yours!
