Open House April 2018

The wait is over, winter has made place for spring and we couldn’t be happier to get out and start planting. We started using soil blocks to compare them to our “routine” 72 plug trays. There’s hope that this will reduce transplanting shock and help our plant grow faster. We started using Biochar and mixing it with our own fermented compost (Bokashi) to increase microbial activity in our soil. Together with volunteers from A Rocha, we started to reforest our Alder/Blackberry mix in the back of the property. The idea behind this is to protect this part of the Little Campbell River watershed , turn the forest into our own Agroforestry project from which we all can learn from and enjoy the forest setting.

This is a wonderful time for us and we’d love to share it with you. We therefore invite you to join us for our Open House on


Saturday, April 28, 2pm to 5pm


Do you have a garden? How’s it growing?  We’d love to hear from you. Want to know how we do farming here?  Come on over. Everyone knows something and knowledge is best shared among all of us. In that sense, we’re inviting you to our  “OPEN HOUSE – Spring Start-Ups” event Saturday, April 28. Come on by anytime between 2pm and 5pm. We’ll have farm tours at 2:15pm and 4:15 pm. We’ll serve a few treats from the fields as well.
