Eat Local, Act Global!
Eating organic is great... but if the organic lettuce comes from California, we are only doing half our job as green citizens. A shocking amount of greenhouse gases come from food transportation and conventional agriculture production.
Toronto Sprouts is an organic urban farm, committed to growing the highest quality sprouts. Our transportation is minimal, and our food production is planet positive. When you buy from us, you reduce your negative environmental impact and support local farming.
You can’t get freshness like this shipped from California.
You Are What You Eat
There is only one way to grow superior sprouts - that is to grow them organically. To be certified organic, food must be produced naturally, without the pesticides, bioengineering, synthetic fertilizers, or ionizing radiation used in conventional agriculture.
At Toronto Sprouts, our seeds, soil, water and growing processes all adhere to the strict standards set by OCPP/Pro-Cert Canada Inc, Canada’s foremost national certifier of organic food products. We are one of about 1,400 members across Canada honouring organic culture.

Heart-Healthy Anti-Oxidants
Sprouts have long been considered a health food, and recent research shows that in addition to being a superb source of nutrients, sprouts contain concentrated amounts of phytochemicals (plant compounds) that can protect us against cancer. Sprouts are simply bursting with enzymes, vitamins, and minerals! Enzymes essentially make life possible. The enzymes in sprouts are special proteins that help our body digest the nutrients in our food.
As well as being tasty, sprouts have a high level of simple sugars that make them a quick energy food, easily absorbed by the body.
Ancient Chinese scriptures over 5,000 years old refer to sprouts for healing and medicinal properties. Scientific research is confirming that sprouts are the food of the future as well as being a food of the past.
