Elim Farms
Farm Project Description
Our vision for Elim farms is to bring some of our South African home to our new home in Canada. We are passionate about agriculture and see it as the best way to contribute to this great country. We are looking to start off with a few greenhouses to plant lavender, as well as other desired crops. We would love to incorporate our love of lavender and delve into Apiculture as an add on.
