COVID RESTRICTIONS
We have all been looking at the new safety regulation for Covid to see how it might work for our business.    Firstly, the farm market will be open  normal Winter Hours: Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 3pm.   I was checking yesterday afternoon and it was pretty dark at 4pm, although we may be still be about the farm if you needed to come later.  We request that customers maintain social distancing and wear a mask.   We have masks available in a package by the cash register, so please help yourself if you need a mask. 
So far as produce is concerned, kindly let us know if you need to order additional produce and we can arrange that for you.   We also support the Nanaimo On-line Market, so you can reach us there, with pick-up Wednesday afternoon at Beban Park.
For the gardeners amongst you, we are already seeding for production of early spring transplants.   These are largely our own heritage, certified organic seed, which we will have available  in the new year.  Much of the seedlings are easy to grow and cold weather tolerant.  
Also, we will have berry transplants, Fava Beans, and Fruit Trees.   Please let us know if you wish any of these items.
Sincerely,
Barbara Ebell

Picture
Nanoose Edibles Farm is located at 1960 Stewart Rd, Nanoose Bay, BC.  We supply restaurants, local businesses, and our stand at the farm with Certified Organic food.  Our farm is known for its famous salad/nutritional greens which will leave you coming back for more.  In the summer we offer u-pick strawberries/raspberries where families come to the farm with a lunch to make a day trip out of it.  Yet in the winter on a cool day, it is still nice to go for a walk and see all the greenery.   In the spring and fall, the farm is a great place to come and find transplants, and apple/plum trees.  -Summer hrs are 10 am-5 pm, Tuesday-Sunday
-Winter hrs are 12pm-dusk, Friday, Sat, and Sunday. 
We hope to see you soon!
Please talk to your children about the farm rules

  • Please be aware that an ELECTRIC fence surrounds the perimeter of the farm and one end of the pond.  Please stress this to your child that it isn’t to experiment with.
  • The float on the pond is out of bounds to children without a parent in attendance.  The dock can be slippery and tipsy and is unsafe for small children.  
  • Tools, machinery and other farm equipment are located around the farm.  Please do not play with the farm machinery and equipment.   It is against the rules of the Farm Safe Program.
  • Chickens are fun but proper care of sanitation after touching them is required.  Please also make sure no outside food goes into the coop.
