We are seasonal growers and producers. All produce is grown in pesticide, herbicide, fungicide and manure free soil. All product is artisan crafted.

Colour change is a normal occurrence in low sugar, natural jams. It does not change the quality or taste of product. Herbs are dried naturally without additives. Jams and conserves are made in small batches with low sugar and certified organic ingredients including natural pectin. Vegetables are grown from our own seed or purchased from certified organic seed sellers. While working in Kelowna for

a fruit production company, my jams have been picked up by 4 star restaurants and hotels in Kelowna including Bakeries in the Kootenay region (2013/2014). I have been published in KCTS 9 Cooks (2007). Won 1st and 2nd prize for my recipe submissions in the Kelowna Peach Festival (1992/1993). Developed a wheat free/sugar free muffin formula for testing at the Fraser Institute of Technology that would be safe for Diabetics (1992). I have worked and managed in the food industry for over 30 years. I am a member of the Cowessess Cree First Nations in Saskatchewan but I grew up working in gardens all my life in the interior of BC where I graduated from planting and harvesting to full canning and preserving by age 12. I have now resided on Vancouver Island for almost 20 years and the biggest challenge for me was learning about the different micro climates, the rain and last but not least, the slug and snail which is very different for me having come from the prairies and the interior of BC. But food growing and production has always been a passion of mine and a way of life. My own children were raised with gardens and worked them as well. I hold a Food Safety Level I certificate. I use only the finest quality of ingredients that I have grown myself or from others who maintain the same high level of standards in sustainable food growing and food safety practices. I will end here by thanking all of you who support local growers and producers.

04/12/2024

I will be here with my own stuff but NOT as Cree'Ation Farm. I've got vintage jewelry, home decor, clothes (lots of mini skirts as I have painstakingly come to realize that it is time to step aside and let the next generation take over). Tarot cards, books. This is like one giant garage sale. Lots of Vendors and lots of fun. And you know what they say, One person's junk is another's treasure...Or something to that effect. 😃

We will be at the Chemainus Public Market today between 10am -5pm.

Today on Willow Street at the Sip 'n Shop Christmas Market we will have lusciously delicious Chocolate cake with Coffee icing. Christmas Stollen, Cranberry sauce and a whole lot more--Our Fig Orange jam is worth fighting over.

Every New Year in Chemainus, we are surrounded by celebration. A beautiful display of lights and color explode at midnight around us. I am so grateful to those for the magic they bring us when the New Year arrives. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! May it be filled with continuous magic and peace, love and song.

Good Morning out there. We'll be at the Chemainus Wednesday Market between 10am and 3pm today. As usual we're running a bit late but Happy Wednesday and let's put a smile on someone's face today.

Blackberry Fig Jam.

Good Morning everyone. Today at the Market we celebrate Mother Natures most finest creations; the Fig and the Blackberry. Both coming into season at the same time which means, Blackberry Fig Jam. Well we have a heat warning in effect along with poor air quality due to fires. So let's play it safe out there and have a happy Wednesday.
