Our Garden

Long before we had a house, we had a garden!

When we moved to the property in 2022 the land was completely raw - and we lived in our fifth wheel. But even though we didn't have a house to live in, the only project we took on that first year was building the garden. Who needs a house when you have a garden?

In hindsight, we're glad we did it this way. The garden gives us a ton of joy and is a big source of pride. And the fresh vegetables, fruits, and berries keep our family happy all year long.

Depending on when you're here you may be able to help yourself to berries, fruits, and vegetables from the garden. We'll let you know what's available during your stay, but if you have any questions please ask before helping yourself!

Our 7,000+ square foot garden is completely protected by an 8' elk fence.	Every year, we have more rhubarb than we know what to do with!	It took a few tries for our asparagus to take off, but now we're able to harvest some just about every day in the summer. We'd be happy to share with you!
So many peppers in so many colours!	We had enough tomatoes last year to freeze and eat them all winter... and we had even more this year.	The apple trees are still young, but still produced a decent number of delicious apples last summer.
Homegrown garlic is such a treat, especially when you have enough to use it year-round.	Our garden produces enough potatoes to have on hand throughout the year.	Kale, lettuce, and cabbage is great for growing here since it's not scared of the colder weather and shorter growing season.
Tomato varieties galore!	A typical daily harvest during the summer. We love to share our garden fresh vegetables with our Airbnb guests.	Our 7,000+ square foot garden is completely protected by an 8' elk fence.
We enjoy our home-grown squash varieties all year long.	We encourage our Airbnb guests to help themselves to raspberries during their visit. They need to be picked every day before the birds get them.	Our young plum trees haven't produced much fruit yet. But that's no surprise... we had no luck with plums when we lived on Vancouver Island, either.
We'll definitely grow more carrots in 2026. We used the last of the 2025 carrot harvest at Christmas dinner.		Our 7,000+ square foot garden is completely protected by an 8' elk fence.
In addition to the vegetables in the garden, we have flower beds all over the property. They are beautiful from late spring all the way through autumn.
