Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Fresh City Farms Inc Full time

About Fresh City:

Fresh City is an award-winning urban farm and omni-channel retailer. Founder-led, we're on a mission to help people better the world through their food choices. More than one decade after we first began, our belief in that is even stronger.

Every day, we deliver organic produce, chef-inspired and made from scratch prepared foods, bespoke meats and more to thousands of Greater Toronto Area families.

We also farm in Downsview Park, where we also operate a farmer incubator program.


In 2018, Fresh City acquired Mabel's Bakery, a popular bakery in Toronto producing artisan breads and pastries, and shortly after acquired The Healthy Butcher, a pioneer in organic and 100% Grassfed beef, in 2019.

In 2022, subscription-based organic produce and grocery delivery company Mama Earth Organics was added to the lineup of brands making Fresh City the largest organic online retailer in Ontario.


With five retail locations and home delivery across the GTA between our four brands, the Fresh City family of brands continues to bring farmers, makers and eaters together to deliver a food experience that respects our bodies, our planet, and our shared tomorrow.

Food is our passion.

We proudly employ over 300 employees across our four brands including our farm, our two warehouses, our food production facilities, our offices and our retail locations.

We're continuously advancing our culture of belonging, where everyone feels seen, heard, valued and free to be their authentic selves.
