Description
We are a family of 5 who left the city over 2 years ago and purchased 255 acres of land in a remote town in Brittish Columbia. We decided we wanted to be surrounded by nature, slow down and reconnect with what matters to us. Our goal is to welcome others to share in this experience, where we can grow, learn and share our passion with like minded people. Our current projects include fencing, building tiny homes, greenouse and other structures, landscapping, gardenning, taking care of livestock, splitting wood and the list goes on.
We are also a family who loves beach volleyball and will have our own beach court ready in May of this year.
