Co-op Calendar 

Crofter’s started as an organic brand in 1989, back in the days when the organic movement was just beginning. Setting up shop on the shores of Georgian Bay was almost serendipitous. Our founders Gerhard and Gabriele Latka were new to Canada from Germany, and were searching for the perfect place to start making a more nutritious, organic fruit spread. If it wasn’t for a recommendation to head north for a weekend to Parry Sound, who knows where our home would be today. We’re just glad they fell in love with Parry Sound and recognized that an organic company would undoubtedly flourish in the right environment. Through the years Crofter’s has grown to become the largest manufacturer of organic fruit spreads in North America, but our roots are still firmly planted in Parry Sound. Each jar of Crofter’s is still carefully made in the same facility where it all started. Sometimes we are amazed at how our little facility hums along, sending jars of delicious organic fruit spread on their journey to market and tables of our fans around the world.
