Presenter

Jonathan Bruderlein

Jonathan Bruderlein came to Ottawa after years of experience operating an organic farm in the Montreal area followed by a sabbatical where he, his wife Julianne and young son visited and connected with many other organic farmers across North America.
Jonathan came to farming after deciding that medical school wasn’t for him, and that agronomy is where he could have a bigger impact on the lives of other people. He and his family are now in their 5th year operating Ottawa Farm Fresh that they started with the idea of building a community-supported farm, where members benefit from fresh organically grown vegetables, get a chance to be involved in community celebrations and harvesting activities. For Jonathan, farming is more than a career, it’s a lifestyle.
