  • Bought the wildflower cream honey opening morning, having it everyday since - it's really good! Just wish I had bought the sourdough bread to go with.

    Robert G.

  • Thank you for the amazing tour and knowledge he shared with my son. We had an amazing time and the store front with all repurpose articles gives the entire place a story that you can share with all your customers. I could see the passion in his eyes and the pride when he gave us the back of the scene walks. You have a very sustainable envrionmentally friendly option to regular farming, we will be back.

  • Loved it! Was there last week. It's an amazing spot.

    Allison C.

  • We visited Fresh Heads on Saturday afternoon. We picked up fresh romaine and butter lettuces (I think that's what it's called) and a green pepper. We made an olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing for the lettuces, picked up pizza from Slice of Fire on Main St Markham and dinner was done (and lunch the next day). All totally local and delicious!

    Sherry S.

  • I came over to the market this week and bought some beautiful romaine lettuce. If anyone wants to know where to get fresh romaine lettuce, I say go to Fresh Heads!

    Julie A.

  • Such a pretty shop! So magical

Our dream is a healthy planet and food access for all…

Growing our dream.

My name is Pierce Spraggon, and I discovered aquaponics in university. I became captivated with the idea and the potential it held. I was sure that this was the future of all farming, and that I was at the forefront of something special.

Six years later, with immense support and dedication from my family, with wholehearted passion and commitment, we managed to build the structure, install the system, and today we are sustainably growing a wide variety of leafy greens on a weekly basis.

And my dream continues to grow. I know this is the future of environmental sustainability and food accessibility for all and I’m proud and excited to be jumping into this exciting new world with all of you.
