Description
Join us on our beautiful 24 acre family run farm in charming Cedar, just minutes from Duke Point ferry and 10 minutes from downtown Nanaimo. Here we pride ourselves on sustainable farming and homesteading practices providing our family and friends with organically grown produce. We raise chickens, geese, ducks, turkeys and dairy goats. We have two homesteads on the property housing three generations on our little piece of paradise.
We are not a commercial farm, but instead a family wishing to live a simple and healthy lifestyle. We are surrounded with beautiful walking trails to local amenities, pristine fresh river swimming holes, quiet beaches and open sky stargazing. We look forward to hosting you and welcoming you into our home and family.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We love to learn about other cultures and enjoy listening to stories from "back home". If you'd like to share your favorite home town recipes, we love to try them out!! We are happy to give you as much information as we can about Vancouver Island, along with ideas of what to do while you are here exploring our beautiful country.
Aide
Often helping alongside us but at times independently, you'll be diving into the farm life with caring for the animals, doing garden tasks (large vegetable and flower gardens), general maintenance tasks, help with preserving foods, painting farm structures, and if you are carpentry inclined or an electrician, there are always projects on the go!

Hébergement
You'll have your own very large room with private entrance, a Queen sized bed, computer desk, two reclining couches and TV with access to streaming networks. We will share the rest of the house including kitchen where it would be fun to cook meals together. If you prefer your own space, we can arrange to have a dinner table and chairs put in your room or you can eat with our family. You'll have your own designated bathroom with shower just down the hall.
I like to say we eat healthy and try for low sugar and non processed foods (however I do have two young picky eaters in the house)! We usually have a portion of meat with our dinners but also always a vegetable and grain or starch. We are starting to ask though that if the selection in our kitchen or gardens can't provide your dietary requirements, to please purchase for yourself any additional food item requirements. There is a grocery store a bike ride away 🥰.
We also now have to mention that keeping your bathroom tidy and clean and helping with keeping the kitchen clean on the daily is not part of the daily 5 hour chore list but instead given as a contribution to becoming a part of our family and just pitching in as you would at home ❤️.
Autres infos...
As we have young children here, please no hard drugs or loud vulgar language
