Farm Name
Wild Bee Florals
Farm Project Description

We're Thanu and Aaron, the folks behind Wild Bee Florals (www.wildbeeflorals.com). Right now we grow on leased land on Stapley Road in Dove Creek, and we just love the Comox Valley and the community we've found here. We've been farming for six years, since the fall of 2020, slowly learning how to turn a lot of love for growing things into a real, working farm business. Flowers are our main love, especially growing for weddings and the Comox Valley Farmers Market, but we also grow veggies to share with our community. Now we're hoping to find a piece of land we can finally call our own and keep building on. So we're reaching out with a simple hope: if you're a farmer or gardener who's been thinking about the next chapter for your land, we'd genuinely love to talk. We're looking at somewhere between 1 and 6 acres, but really, it's less about the exact size and more about finding the right place. If your land has your years of care poured into it, we'd feel honoured to keep that going rather than see it sit unused or get carved up. If this is something you've been quietly turning over in your mind, we'd love to hear from you. No pressure at all, just an open door and a genuine conversation. You can reach us anytime at wildbeeflorals@gmail.com or by text at 250-792-4274. Thank you so much for even reading this far. We'd feel really lucky to carry your land's story forward.
