Rethinking Food
Compton’s is a proud family-owned farm that has been a cherished part of the Summerside community since 1957, fostering a deep connection with our neighbours and visitors alike. We specialize in growing the freshest strawberries, sweet corn, an array of mixed vegetables, vibrant pumpkins, high-quality wheat, and fragrant straw.
Our farm not only offers delightful U-Pick Berry Patches and engaging corn mazes but also features a welcoming roadside stand, all designed to provide a transparent and educational experience for our valued customers.
We are wholeheartedly committed to upholding the highest standards of quality, practicing sustainability in our farming methods, and honouring the rich tradition of family farming that has been passed down through generations.
Vision
Our goal is to keep growing Compton’s as a vital part of local farming and community involvement. We see a future where our farm not only provides great produce but also offers education, sustainability, and community activities. By improving our farming methods and expanding what we offer, we aim to meet our customers’ changing needs while staying true to our roots. Compton’s is committed to leading in sustainable farming, so we can keep providing healthy, locally-grown food for years to come.
Mission
Our goal is to provide our community with locally grown, fresh produce that reflects the taste and tradition of Prince Edward Island. We not only grow crops but also build strong connections with our customers by offering an immersive farm experience. By welcoming the public, we aim to teach and inspire, promoting a deeper understanding of food sources and the importance of supporting local agriculture. Comptons represent more than just food; we embody a way of life that values hard work, integrity, and the joy of sharing the harvest with those around us.
