Because we all need good food in our lives…
The Sheepdog Grill is the food trailer of Flat Earth Farm. It is certified annually for food production by our health unit, allowing us to transform meat from the lambs and sheep raised on our farm—into elite, gourmet products. We use the whole animal, including the choicest cuts, to make the ground meat that is the basis of our sausages and burgers, and then take the show on the road so that we can serve these indulgences fresh off the grill, in different locations across the Ottawa Valley.
In autumn of 2022 we wheeled out the new trailer and the old skills—after all, we’d made our own sausages for years, and Denise spent her adult life in the food service industry. Folks at the weekly Just Food Farm Stand and monthly Original Navan Market gave us positive feedback, while we tested our ideas.
In 2023 we added a few festivals, fairs and events, and had a fantastic summer! We created a brand new—and extremely popular—Haggissausage™ after the folks at the Glengarry Highland Games inquired whether we could make haggis. (We decided to come up with an edible alternative.)
We had a number of farm events, including Carrotfest at Ottawa Farm Fresh and an incredibly successful Fall Farm Fest at the Just Food Community Farm.
The Good Food Caravan
In 2024 we’re packing our schedule with some excellent events—a summer of music, theatre, laughter and games. Keep up with our Grilled Culture 2024 tour on the Sheepdog Grill FB site here:
