Our unique small business in
Tatamagouche, Nova Scotia follows its own path. We grow greens and gourds in our year-round greenhouse and pesticide free highbush blueberries in our north field . We also make natural handmade soaps, a project which arose from the need to protect and nourish our work- and sun- challenged skin. We operate a custom portable sawmill service, and we manage our farm woodlot following strict sustainable practices developed by the Acadian Forest Keepers Pool as certified by Smartwood under the Forest Stewardship Council and Rainforest Alliance.
Our goal is to produce useful and practical products in an environmentally sustainable manner from the resources available to us.
Our handmade cold process soaps are made from certified organic pure plant oils and utilize our own flowers and herbs.
All of our wood products come from our own or nearby rersponsibly managed woodlots using trees from blowdowns or from thinning operations that were conducted to improve forest stands. Our goal is to create both beautiful and useful products that foster a greater appreciation of the value of Nova Scotia woodlands.
Our greenhouse is heated with wood by-products from our forestry and sawmill operations. In the greenhouse, we produce pesticide free salads and Asian greens starting in March. In the summer we use our greenhouse space to produce loofah sponges to compliment our handmade natural soaps and also to produce bottle gourds that we make into birdhouses and bird feeders. Our highbush blueberries are completely pesticide free and are hand-picked in July and August.
