Permaculture and Food Forest Nursery

We, Mikaela Cannon and Peter Glimm, operate a perennial food garden and plant nursery for our family and community. We use the garden as a tool for learning and to promote the creation of your own permanent food garden.

We aim to create local food security and sovereignty by using a no-till approach and by adding compost when growing our food and plants.

​

We never use pesticides, herbicides or petrochemical fertilizers, because we believe using those to be a short-sighted and unhealthy way to farm.

Instead, we try to understand what the soil needs, and help encourage beneficial bacteria and microorganisms as well as symbiotic relationships between plants and fungi which in turn will feed the plants all the nutrients that they need for healthy living. 

 

Each year we learn more about this fascinating topic, there is an endless amount of knowledge to learn!

 

We always strive to increase biodiversity and to live lightly on the land. Together with our children we learn about the bugs and the animals in our garden, and we strive to live in harmony with the other critters on our farm.

 

Our goal is to see how functioning ecosystems can include humans and our food production.

I acknowledge that I work and play on the traditional unceded territories of the Secwépemc and Syilx-Okanagan Peoples. I recognize the strength and wisdom of the Peoples who have lived here for 10,000 years, and I commit to do all I can to bring truth and reconciliation into the work that I do.
