Chris Krucker and his partner Denise own ManoRun Organic Farm in Hamilton. With their 4 children they have been growing vegetables and meats organically for 25 years. As part of helping to develop local food in Hamilton he was a founding member of the Dundas Farmer’s Market, the Locke Street Farmer’s market and Farm Crawl Hamilton. The farm has operated as a CSA since it’s start. In addition to vegetables they raise cattle, pigs and chicken. Over the years the farm has worked on different ways to create income streams that complement their existing growing operation. Some of these directions include school tours, consulting, on farm catered events and agri-tourism.
