About Us
We Design & Build Food Gardens in Victoria, BC
We’ve been operating in Victoria, BC for 12 years! In that time, we’ve been so fortunate to have worked with hundreds of clients in the Capital Region, from residential clients to universities, schools, city parks and community gardens.
Our business specializes in creating organic landscapes that produce food year-round and look amazing! We also strive to create a regenerative work environment for our staff by providing meaningful work, health & dental benefits for full-time staff, and access to unique produce.
In the city, we build edible landscapes (or ‘foodscapes’) and orchards for homeowners, community centers, schools, and universities.
On farmland, we help land managers shift to perennial, low-carbon agriculture with an emphasis on multi-functional tree crops, soil health, and holistic water management.
