The Organic Food Division has 10 full-time employees
and over 1000 seasonal workers involved in the harvesting of organic wild
rice and organic wild mushrooms. Quality Assurance International and OCCP/Pro-Cert
Canada Inc. certify the organic wild rice in the world. Along with our
own production, we purchase wild rice from over 100 independent organic
producers in Northern Saskatchewan. Our wild rice is sold primarily to
markets throughout Europe and The United States.
Northern Lights Foods is the first company in Canada
to offer organically certified wild mushrooms. The product line includes
Morels, Chanterelles and Matsutake mushrooms. They are available in fresh,
dried and frozen. The organic mushrooms are harvested in the Boreal Forest
of Northern Saskatchewan, which is one of the most pristine environments
in the world.
