Description
Our little farmstead is located on beautiful Vancouver Island, surrounded by old cedar forests, yet a few minutes away from the village center. We currently have goats, chickens and ducks and gardens however our long term vision is to open a sanctuary space with a sauna and hot tub. We are learning and implementing permaculture values as we work with the land and transform it into our little paradise.
