The website enables you to search by produce, to discover when the produce are in season and to find the location and times for markets and agritourism farms. There are over 40 farmers from across the province listed in this guide offering farm fresh produce from apples to zucchinis. It was created to make it easy for you to find and buy locally-grown produce.

A tasty cornucopia of local fruits, vegetables, preserves, meat and other great products is available across Prince Edward Island. This guide will let you know how to go about picking or selecting your favourites, and take you to the people who produce them with pride. There’s something about the experience of buying local products that just can’t be matched.
By taking home local products, Islanders and visitors alike will discover the satisfaction that comes from knowing they are getting fresh and wholesome food. They are also getting the natural taste that comes from a long tradition of people who have harvested the rich bounty of the land and sea on this Island for generations. You can also find out more about these products from the people who nurtured them.
