ABOUT US
"Two souls with but a single thought, two hearts that beat as one." -John Keats



WHO WE ARE
​Corey Ceccolini. Farmer, foodie, seed saver, activist, athlete, teacher. Corey has been digging in the dirt since arriving in nova scotia in 2007 – initially growing organic garlic, then moving into subsistence gardening and finally acting on her dream of starting a CSA and shifting gears into market gardening.
​
Justin Smith. Farmer, gold miner, entrepreneur, beekeeper, dreamer, jack-of-all-trades. Justin grew up on a small horse logging farm and purchased 150 acres just down the road from there to begin his homesteading dream.
WHAT WE DO
Hilltop Homestead is a small-scale farm located in Pictou County, Nova Scotia that grows a wide variety of mixed vegetables using all natural and organic practices.
​
Our farm grows an abundance of garlic and operates a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program that offers weekly deliveries of fresh, high quality vegetables to families in the local area.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
​To steward the land; sustain biodiversity; provide fresh and organically grown vegetables to local families; encourage a seasonal approach to eating and drive the local food movement in Pictou County.
