Meet The Open Farm Team

Our Story

When I rescued my first dog, Bella, I set out to find a natural, nutritious pet food that would help her grow happy, healthy and strong – and that aligned with my personal values. But at the time, it seemed every option was full of ingredients that seemed to compromise my animal welfare, sustainability and transparency standards. As an animal lover, not only did I want to provide my pet with the highest quality food, but I also wanted to ensure that it was made ethically, sourced from humane family farms that treated their animals with respect. I was disappointed in the options that were available, so alongside my husband Isaac and brother-in-law Derek, we started to explore what it would take to develop a pet food that met our standards – knowing there were likely many others who were seeking the same.

After years of research and hard work, we started Open Farm. Our goal was to do more than just change what our pet food contained; we wanted to completely rethink the way it was made. For us, that meant not only sourcing the highest quality ingredients, but also supporting farmers who treat their animals right, and providing full transparency to our customers.

It’s out of that vision that Open Farm was born—from the simple idea that pet food can both be good for your pet, and do some good for farm animals and the environment, all at the same time.

Our Values

Transparency, premium nutrition, and ethical sourcing. As a proud Canadian company, these three values are what guide us in everything we do - from the way we procure our ingredients, to how we package our products. And because we believe pet owners have the right to know exactly what’s in their pet’s food and where it came from, we’re always ready to provide the proof. That’s the “open” in Open Farm.
