WE DON’T JUST GROW BEER HERE

We acknowledge we are farming, brewing and building community on the unceded territory of the Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation). And thus, we are committed to the utmost sustainable and responsible land management practises.

5 ACRES OF BARLEY

 Our property consists of two large fields, two apple orchards, two market gardens, two greenhouses and a flock of laying hens. Our large fields were first established in 2013 to grow hops. However, as nature (and a black root rot) would have it, we are now removing the hops and planting other crops. Barley is the key fermentable ingredient in beer and we are committed to planting at least 5 acres of it here.

COMMUNITY SUPPORTED AGRICULTURE

Community-supported agriculture (CSA) is a food production and distribution system that directly connects farmers and consumers. CSA members (the consumers) buy shares of a farm’s harvest in advance, and then receive a portion of the crops as they’re harvested. Since shares are purchased in advance, the farmer gets much needed capital to start the season. Thus both risk and the reward are shared between the farmer and the members.
