Video: The Hardest Harvest


The Hardest Harvest documentary shares the details of what happened at Nature Fresh Farms in the summer of 2020. Covid-19 has been devastating for many industries: for us, it led to the temporary removal of our workforce from our farms, as well as 7.8 million pounds of produce going to waste within a matter of days. Our documentary not only reiterates our value for our Guest Worker team members, but also gives them a platform to talk about their personal perspectives on the Guest Worker program as a whole. Watch as we discuss our experiences with Covid-19, the state of the Canadian food system, and how much we respect our Guest Workers as essential members of our team.
