Earthwise Society

Community, our earth, and how we act within it Earthwise is a not-for-profit, charitable organization.

We are a community resource on ecological gardening, a model of best practice for sustainable horticulture, a public space where the community connects with nature. The Earthwise Society operates the Boundary Bay Earthwise Garden and Demonstration Food Gardens. We put people of all ages in touch with the earth, from grade school children learning about soil, biodiversity, wildlife stewardship and

resource conservation; to adults learning about ecological gardening, composting and growing food. The Earthwise Garden demonstrates that it is possible to have a healthy, sustainable, beautiful landscape without the use of chemicals. The Earthwise Demonstration Food Gardens puts the community in touch with food, where it comes from, how it grows, the ecological costs of getting it to our tables, and the importance of sustainable organic growing practices.

What a fun time we had at last week’s Garden Buddies meetup! We kicked things off with a Halloween trivia quiz, then got crafty making these beautiful squash succulent planters (they turned out amazing!). After all the creativity, we enjoyed a tasty picnic of sandwiches and apple strudel.

A big thank you to Southlands Grange Centre for Farming & Food for letting us use the Red Barn as the weather cools down!

One of our Garden Buddies led our most recent session all about flower pounding! We played around with various flowers and leaves from the Earthwise garden and pounded them onto paper and fabric. The results were incredible! We all had so much fun that we lost track of time - the ultimate sign of a great afternoon in the garden.

Today this garden rabbit is being kind enough to eat the weeds out of the tile work for us! If you ever find that rabbits are being less polite than this one, try planting marigold, onion or garlic around your garden to discourage them from entering.

Amaranth, with its vibrant colours and nutritious seeds, is an undeniable favourite among birds, as you can tell from their joyful flutter around the garden!

Our Story

Earthwise is a resource on ecological gardening, a model of best practice for sustainable horticulture, and a public space where the community connects with nature. The Earthwise Society operates the Earthwise Garden and Certified Organic Farm in the Boundary Bay neighbourhood of Delta, and the Earthwise Certified Organic Farm in Agassiz. Both communities are located in British Columbia, Canada.

We put people of all ages in touch with the earth, from grade school children learning about soil, biodiversity, wildlife stewardship and resource conservation; to adults learning about ecological gardening, composting and growing food. The Earthwise Garden demonstrates that it is possible to have a healthy, sustainable, beautiful landscape without the use of chemicals. The Earthwise Certified Organic Farm puts the community in touch with food, where it comes from, how it grows, the ecological costs of getting it to our tables, and the importance of sustainable organic growing practices.
