Tomorrow is our big day!

We invite you to Nutcracker Ridge Farm on Saturday, June 13 from 10 am to 2 pm for an exclusive open house event featuring cutting-edge farm sensor technology, robotics, and drones.

Interested parties can register at OntarioHazelnuts.com by navigating to the home page and clicking ‘Sign Up Here.’ The $15 registration fee goes to the nonprofit Ontario Hazelnut Association to help promote a hazelnut industry in Ontario.

Our vision at the Ontario Hazelnut Association is to advocate for and help to lead the development of a sustainable hazelnut industry that provides a premium and profitable product that is sold in and exported from Ontario.

These two American Toads — with their warty, bumpy skin in shades of brown and tan — are fantastic pest controllers, feasting on slugs, beetles, ants, and all manner of insects.

Last night brought much-needed rain, and, hopefully, this afternoon's forecast of additional rainfall is correct. 🌧️

Register at https://ontariohazelnuts.com/ to see this demonstration at our farm on Saturday June 13 starting at 10:00 am.

Come check out Wonderfull Inc’s DJI agricultural drones at our farm tour on June 13!
There will be a demonstration, and we hope to discuss what the technology can do, and where drone tech can provide value within modern specialty crop production.
The discussion will include both conversations about what the drones can do (spraying precision, navigating complex field layouts, etc.) as well as practical considerations such as operating costs and licensing.
The farm tour is at Nutcracker Ridge Farm in Uxbridge, on June 13 from 10-2, and you can find more information on the OHA’s website.
