Ginger Info!

September is Gingerpalooza time at Sayward Haven Farm.  Here is what you want to know:

How Do I Purchase Ginger?

To ensure you get your ginger, you can pre-order ginger on our website starting Saturday, September 14th starting at 10am.  Quantities are limited so order early.  

What do I buy when I purchase Fresh Ginger?

We sell the whole plant so you get the juicy, fresh root and the stems/leaves.  The stems/leaves can be used like lemongrass to infuse flavour into your meals or make ginger tea.  The root is used like the ginger you purchase at the store but it has some big differences.

When is the ginger available to be picked up?

We harvest ginger on September 27th.  You can pick up your ginger EITHER Saturday Sept. 28th during GIngerpalooza or on Sunday Sept. 29th.

What is Gingerpalooza?

We host this one day event annually.  Come sample foods made with our fresh Ginger, get recipes and purchase food items (our Ginger Snaps are popular!).  Fresh Ginger is also available for sale but we usually sell out so come early! 

Our regular farm stand will be open with fresh produce that you can also purchase.  Our popular bread and baked goods will also be available for sale.

Gingerpalooza runs rain or shine. 

Cash, E-Transfer, Credit and Debit are available for payment.

Dogs permitted on leash only.  Children are welcome.

Where do I park when I come to pick up my Fresh Ginger?

Street parking only please.  The farm is a short 200 feet walk along our gravel driveway.

What if I want to buy more ginger after I pre-order Fresh Ginger - for me, friends or family?

We have Fresh Ginger available at Gingerpalooza that you can purchase when you pick up your pre-order, while supplies last.

How much does Fresh Ginger cost?

We sell the whole plant so you get the root and stems/leaves.  It is sold by weight. 

1/2 pound bag - $12

1 pound bag - $22

During Gingerpalooza we also have "Ginger Bites" for sale.  They are small sample sized pieces of Fresh Ginger for $5.
