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.

We have individual cabins for workers with minimal power for lights and charging. WiFi is available. We have an outdoor shower, outhouses and a washing machine. Cooking facilities are available in each cabin. We provide you with food to cook your own meals.
One of our accommodations is a rustic truck house. Many people have talked about how they love staying in the truck house named Jake because of its rustic and unique charm. It has what you need, a stove for cooking, a sink inside and outside, a couch for relaxing and many books available for reading, a bed that overlooks one of our many apple orchards.
Our other two accommodations also have everything you need a stove for cooking, food provided, a bed to sleep in, tables, an outside area for relaxing and beautiful views of our orchards and the surrounding mountains.
