Seasonal Availability
If the farm could have all its needs met through barter with our local community, it would be ideal. Until then we are selling our goods at the Farmers Markets of Kamloops on Wednesdays and Saturdays, as well as Chase on Fridays. All of our produce is grown organically except for our sweet corn. Here in British Columbia, sweet corn seed that is untreated with fungicides is simply too difficult to grow. The corn itself isn't sprayed but the early seed that is planted is coated in a fungicide. We also use some artificial fertilizer on our corn. In 2010, we begin crop rotations as well as interplanting with legumes. This will hopefully eliminate our need for artificial fertilizers completely in the next years.

Get Involved
In 2009, the BC Food Systems Network (BCFSN) gave birth to the Shuswap Regional Food Network (SRFN). The goal of our regional network is to enable communication through our list-serve as well as through community pot lucks and events. If this sounds like something you'd like to be a part of, if only to share your thoughts, click here to sign up. "Let's Talk Local Food and Local Solutions" was the theme of last year's gathering. See the TRU article for more information.
