The Country Bee Farm Experience
Our animals are here for the enjoyment of our store’s customers! Sometimes we get so wrapped up in life that we forget to stop and smell the flowers… and that is exactly what you can do here. The fields are in bloom with different flowers throughout the summer, and there’s lots of animals to see at the back, including mini donkeys, alpacas, emu’s, lambs, pigs, and baby chicks! Wristbands mandatory for field entrance.Read more
Local Christmas Trees
On December 1st our farm gets extra festive as we start selling freshly cut Vancouver Island Christmas trees. In 2022 we opened our U-Pick Christmas tree farm! You can lighten up your living room with a Christmas tree that was grown right here on our farm. Available in a wide variety of sizes, and ranging in price from $68 – $115 for pre-cut and $15/ft for U-Pick.

Happy Livestock
Seasonally we offer farm-raised poultry and pork. Our poultry is free range, hormone free and delicious. As is our pork, raised on whiskey mash, local farm produce, and grains FREE of hormones, GMO’s, and antibiotics. We’re happy to say that we raise happy livestock!
Pollinator Garden
During the spring and summer months our pollinator garden is in full bloom. The nectar and pollen from the vibrant flowers that grow around the store serve as an energy and protein source for our bees. Take a look at the variety flowers we planted.
Holiday Turkeys
Around the holidays we sell our farm raised turkeys. Perfect for a delicious family dinner on Thanksgiving or Christmas. All our turkeys are free range and fed only hormone and antibiotic free food. Our birds generally weigh between 16-24 lbs.
Observation Hive
Observe the bees depositing pollen from our pollinator garden, creating honey right in front of you, and watch the queen lay her eggs. The observation hive located by the pond, next to the farm animals, is great for teaching your kids about bees in a fun and memorable way.
