Growing food is an adventure, it’s an exploration deep into the ground and a continuous relationship with nature that proves it’s importance. Each winter we hit the reset button and we start over; we explore the opportunities in the year to come. Join the Edible Acres Farm team for a morning exploration through Winderberry greenhouses and Edible Acres vegetable farm. Learn about how we celebrate nature and explore the world of agriculture on our certified organic farm and the importance of healthy soil and a diverse ecosystem. We’ll talk about the steps of our operation from seed germination, rooting out and transplanting to greenhouse and field production of our flowers and vegetables. We’ll share with you our integrated system on the farm from our living compost pile to our ‘mobile’ chicken manure station. Your tour will all come together with a celebration in eating and we will serve you a lovely farm to plate organic lunch at Edible Acres Cafe. Lunch – Included. WindermereJoin Farmer Oliver Egan who is the heart and soul of Edible Acres Farm, Lin Egan who holds a BSc in Global Resource Systems from the University of BC, Chef Randy MacSteven who is a certified Red Seal Chef and Anna Steedman who grew up working at Winderberry.
