The Brew Creek Farm in Whistler, BC, is seeking a Farm Hand/Delivery Driver!
ABOUT The Brew Creek Farm
We are a small regenerative agriculture farm nestled in the beautiful Sea to Sky region, dedicated to sustainable farming practices and providing fresh produce to local restaurants and grocery stores. We are located 20 minutes south of Whistler Village.
Our farm is located in an awe inspiringly beautiful area of the coastal mountain range and as the stewards of this land, we take responsible steps towards protecting its biodiversity and accentuating its natural beauty. It is essential to our operation that our services and products are aligned with these goals, from the day-to-day small tasks, to how we operate as a whole. The property is situated on 20 acres of land in a secluded forest sanctuary, but only 15 minutes from Whistler.
The Brew Creek Farm was historically a high end retreat centre with catering to groups with produce right here from the farm. While we do still host retreats on site, the farm project was such a hit that it has shifted the focus of the property and we have recently become the first year-round organic production farm in the area!
Over the past three seasons we have been making this shift and are now in full operation selling to high end restaurants in Whistler, Squamish and even Vancouver. Additionally, to contribute to the community, over the summer we offer a weekly produce donation to the local food bank. These small steps are progressing us towards becoming a central hub for the future of environmentally conscious agriculture in the region.
It has been a big transition process, but we are already reaping the benefits through nourishing our community, invigorating the food security of the region, and tending to the land in a regenerative manner to honour the beautiful ecosystem that we reside within.
Here at the Brew Creek Farm we are inspired by modern farming techniques and alternative agricultural practices. Our produce is carefully cultivated using the most up to date regenerative practices with an emphasis on energy efficiency, nutrient density, taste, and year round production. We harvest from approximately three acres.
