About Our Farm
Full Circle Farm began in Black Creek, a Mennonite community on Vancouver Island. There, we grew a family garden and raised chickens, cows, Norwegian Fjord horses, and, for several years, a few sheep. In April of 1999, we made the decision to buy 20 acres in Canyon, just east of the small town of Creston, BC. Since then, our farm has evolved into forty acres that includes grain farming and turkey raising, in addition to our garden, cows, horses, and chickens.
As for pets, we have a growing number of these. Our faithful farm dogs, Prince (German Shepherd), Tasha (Kuvasz) came to Canyon with us. We acquired Carter, an obstinate Lhasa Apso, in a moment of weakness a few years ago. Zoey is our sole surviving feline from 2009, down from a troupe of 3 queenly cats who have presided over the farm.
We are fully Kootenay Mountain Grown certified and are working with Kootenay Local Agricultural Society. Their website is a wealth of information for growing of all kinds!
Our vision is sustainable, organic farming beyond oil. Small is beautiful.

The grace that is the
health of creatures can only be held in common... A creature is not a creator, and cannot be. There is only one Creation, and we are its members. To be creative is only to have health: to keep oneself fully alive in the Creation, to keep the Creation fully alive in oneself, to see the Creation anew, to welcome one’s part in it anew.
- Wendell Berry -
