Project

Farm Name
MADHOUSE.Love
Farm Project Description

We hope to grow a variety of unique plants (many of which we already have at our disposal or have planned set up and seeds for) with a strong focus on microgreens, mushrooms, edible flowers/herbs, Heirloom Tomatoes, Peppers and eggplants, Various Berries (and eventually larger fruits), Zucchini, Squash, and cultivating more unique variets of plants in smaller quantities. MADHOUSE.Love currently operates as Vegan, Gluten Free, Whole Food Plant Based food producer that utilizes local, unique, and wholesome ingredients in every creation from sweet treats like donuts, cakes, and cookies to savoury delights like butters, sauces, plant based 'cheeses' and 'meats', breads, pies, and full sized entrees like lasagna and shepherds pies. We also hope to resume the catering portion of our business once COVID restrictions allow weddings, parties, festivals and other large scale events. Here at the MADHOUSE.Love we are dedicated to providing you with not just the tastiest and prettiest vegan treats on Vancouver Island, but the healthiest as well! That’s why everything on our menu is not only 100% Vegan but also Whole Food Plant Based, that means we do not use any refined sugars, oils, salts or refined carbohydrates, additionally we are entirely gluten free. All of our food is delivered in its unrefined (albeit ground up) plant form, this means all of the vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and fiber in our products remains intact and you get to reap the health benefits from all those fruits and veggies we use to create our junk free junk foods! Everything from cookies, donuts, cakes, lasagna, pizza’s, and breads to unique nut butters, apparel, and more! We are a madhouse of love and witchy delights!
