The Wooden Monkey

Our success is due to our amazing staff which had to learn some pretty different things 9 years ago . like organics, fair-trade, Monsanto, factory farming, fish farms, gluten, nut and wheat allergies. Celiac disease.. and the list goes on and on . and the learning still continues for us all.

The Wooden Monkey strives to support and help grow a healthier, local, sustainable food system here in Nova Scotia.

We welcome you to join us in learning and tasting the amazing benefits you receive while supporting your local farmers. This new direction we are all working towards helps all the vital ecosystems on this planet. While growing our local economy we can feed our neighbors and support all the cleaner technology to help bring this world to a better, safer place.

We were committed to a vision of supporting as many organic and local farmers as we can by purchasing ALL our beef, chicken, pork, and lamb from NS only. And that commitment stands strong to this day. We currently purchase from 18 local farms and are proud of this growth! Please check out all our suppliers on our website.
