Slowly, but it comes.

| From the village farm blog |
Village farm has some great ideas in building a new style farm. Based on Vancouver Island, they seem clear that the current food production regime is just absurd. This is the Mediterranean Basin of Canada and should be a showcase for local food production.
The land will be used for Co-op owned enterprises like Fruit Orchards
and Forestry, and also individual enterprises run by Participating
Supporters who don’t live on The Village Farm but have bought shares to
use the land for activities like bee keeping, farming produce and seed
cultivation.
We plan on having a community building where there will be a Farm Stand
Market, a Cafe, a commercial kitchen and a gathering space where we will
hold classes, workshops and apprenticeships.
Some of our members have expressed interest in creating a healing centre
using medicinal herbs grown on the farm. Others have a desire to
produce artisanal food products like charcuterie and hold farm table
dinners for the community. As you can imagine, the more we share ideas,
the more excited we get.
