Over the past nine years the Archway Urban Farm has accomplished well beyond what they had envisioned for themselves in 2015.

In an effort to offer more opportunities to the community the farm joined forces with Kinghaven Treatment Center and Peardonville Recovery House to provide weekly volunteer opportunities at the farm. These weekly sessions allowed residents to develop valuable skills and connections that will support them throughout their recovery process.

We love how Borage self seeds in our spaces. It’s related to tomatoes, has beautiful edible blue flowers, and it brings the bees in early to our field so they are accustomed to finding food here when our other crops need the bees!

Here’s the story of our seedling sale: years ago we had some extra plants - more than we could use. So we posted and said ‘plants for a twoonie’. People came from all over to support us! ‘Wow, we thought - this community is awesome’. We’ll do this again next year!
Trouble was, a few circumstances beyond our control got in the way of us repeating. the fun (this included the 2022 Flood devastating the greenhouse we used to use). But last season United Way of BC and Goodwin Greenhouses made our site so much better with two greenhouses. This spring, we are FINALLY!!! able to host another fundraiser seedling sale! 🌱 We are thankful and excited and we have sooo many plants (especially if you love tomatoes!) for Saturday. See you in the morning!! 1356 Sumas Way from 9-11 AM 🌱🌱🌱

Which seedling is bigger? Trick question!!
Both seedlings are the same size and age - when we pot up our tomato seedlings we bury the stem as much as we can into the new pot to help the young plant develop a great root system. If you do the same at home when transplanting them later into the garden, you will have a robust plant.

Did you say a Twoonie?!?
