Exeter Produce is recognized as a leader in the fresh produce industry. With quality products and excellent customer service, Exeter Produce aims to not only meet, but surpass the expectations of our valued customers.
Initially we grew Rutabagas for the North American market.
Rutabaga is a cross between a cabbage and a turnip. Also called a Swedish Turnip or a "Swede", it is very high in iron, and easy to prepare.
Throughout the early 60's, an aggressive growth plan allowed us to acquire 2,800 acres of prime agricultural farm land in Huron County and expand our product offering to our current menu today.
We've been growing 4 different varieties of cabbage for over 50 years at Exeter Produce
In addition to adding a 22 acre hydroponic greenhouse facility in Exeter, Ontario, we continue to invest in significant technology and software upgrades, recognizing the benefits to quality, consistency and waste management that come from updates to our systems and technologies.
We welcome other quality growing operations who meet VeriFine standards to partner with us. Four generations of experience offers growers a reliable partner that can help meet growing demand locally and globally.
Supplying Canada, Northeastern U.S. and the Caribbean, the Exeter Produce Family is committed to providing consistent, high quality, delicious produce. If you see the Veri-Fine Brand, you know you can trust the taste, our history ensures it.
We would like to thank all those who supported us during the past season in these challenging times. We look forward to continuing to feed North America in 2022. Please view our new Rutabaga Recipes under the Recipe Page under Produce .
Happy Holidays from everyone at Exeter Produce

Elf makes a snowman
Elf doesn’t need snow to make a snowman! A few veggies will do just fine. Here’s what you’ll need to help your Elf make a veggie snowman: three small rutabagas, the top of a bell pepper, two cranberries, the end of a carrot or a baby carrot, and two celery sticks.
Begin by assembling the body. Use skewers to stack and hold the turnips in place. Attach the eyes, nose, and arms with skewers or toothpicks. Set the bell pepper hat on top. Sprinkle coconut flakes around the base of the snowman to create “snow.”
