Our farm to table restaurant/cafe, Norbert’s Good Food is closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and since we’ve also been marketing our organic vegetables at various farmers markets for over 30 years before opening the cafe it was a pretty natural pivot for us to offer NGF food boxes to our community of market goers.
And we are proud to offer you these NGF food boxes from our online store!
“My wife Minga and I have had a lifelong passion for good food that is grown locally and organically whenever possible. Food prepared in our kitchen offers the highest nutritional value, intensely delicious flavours and is truly hand-made comfort food prepared for you.
All produce comes from our family’s organic farm, Selwood Green, when available. We only source the very best of ingredients, giving priority to our fellow local and organic producers and market vendors.”

We’re pretty excited about our first Seaport Neighbourhood Shops Newsletter. You can find it in the Feb. 9 issue of The Coast, or at any of the participating vendors at the Seaport Market. It highlights many of the vendors, like us, who are set up and offering great food, 5/6/ even 7 days a week. Drop by and pick up a copy.
Here’s our photo and article that appear with several other profiles.
Selwood Green – Norbert’s Good Food
Since 1989 Norbert Kungl has been known as one of the leading advocates for local, organic farming in Nova Scotia through his family farm called Selwood Green, located in Hants County on the Minas Basin. When the new Seaport Farmers’ Market opened, Norbert and his wife Minga were ready for something new and so they opened Norbert’s Good Food, a special combination of his fresh, seasonal fruit and vegetable stand and a breakfast/lunch counter. This is the only place in Halifax where you are eating food prepared for you by the farm family that grew it. Norbert’s Good Food is also the Halifax outlet for the Boulangerie La Vendeene organic bakery.
Enjoy comfort food that is lovingly prepared from family recipes and naturally localicious.
