Farm Bound is a local supplier that bridges the gap from farm to table, supporting only local and regional farmers who grow, harvest and cultivate organically.

The OC Inspiration Box features chicken from Hoisington Organic Farms in Armstrong, chicken broth from Wild Moon Organics in Armstrong, radishes from Wise Earth Farms in Kelowna and asparagus from Sutcliffe Farms in Creston.

“We built our company around community and food – good food,” explains Farm Bound CEO Jaye Siegmueller. “The College is a big part of this community and being able to incorporate students and help fulfill their learning curriculum feels incredible, especially in this current climate.”

As a mother who believes in local organic nutritional foods, Siegmueller launched Farm Bound as a way to bring a better connection between people and where they get their food from as a way of reminding them of their roots. The company offers sustainably produced foods from local farmers and producers and people can order produce year round.
