  Description

  Come and learn about organic farming! Our farm is located in the Fraser Canyon in a beautiful, natural, and off grid setting. We are surrounded by wilderness and mountains. Our farm is a very unique place.
  My parents have been farming organically since 1985.
  We are a family run farm working together to grow quality produce for the Vancouver Farmers Markets.
  
  We are certified organic with NOOA.
  We use cover crops, organic fertilizer, rock dust, and worm castings for soil enhancement. We also use mostly open pollinated, organic seed.
  
  We accept people from April to mid October. It is well worth coming to see our beautiful farm and spending time working with us.
