Offerings

Mountain Thyme Farm isn't a big producer, after all it's just two of us! We can't compete  with large local farmers, and why would we want to? Our aim is to provide small batch, regeneratively grown produce all year round, with a focus on filling the need when other farms are done for the season.  Our geodesic greenhouse  will be treated like "Vancouver Real Estate" so only a few key crops will be available during the harshest winter months: lettuces, tomatoes, cucumbers, basil, chives, cilantro, thyme, rosemary, savoury, and sage. Inside the dome we'll also house bay leaf trees, fig trees, chilean guava, peppers, table grapes, and ground cherries. 

The rest of the year, we will do our best to offer outdoor plantings of jalapeños, peppers, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, peas, and more. We've invested in an orchard package from Prairie Gardens (proudly Albertan!) that will offer future crops of strawberries, asparagus, pears, plums, apricots, apples, cherries, raspberries and hascaps. We're also nurturing a fiddle head crop for future harvesting. (For the "Down East" folks - if you know, you know!)

All produce is grown chemical free  in keeping with our commitment to sustainability, and regenerative growing practices. 

Additionally,  our very own freeze dried products can be purchased. Selection available is based on what we can grow or source from a partner farm in Summerland BC. For those with a sweet tooth, we have a selection of freeze dried candy year round: salt water taffy, M&M chocolate caramels, skittles (sour and regular), just to name a few. Special orders can be made upon request.

We have a very small flock of hens, so (uninspected) fresh eggs may be available in limited quantities. (We don't force our hens to lay in the winter. Our hens are more like pets, and when they stop laying they live out their retirement years with us. Availability of eggs will depend entirely on the ladies!)

If you like to keep your home chemical free, we also make laundry boost, linen sprays, and solid dish soap bars. Natural skin care products are made in small batches - solid body butter bars, bath bombs scented with lavender and vanilla, and a lovely skin polish!
