About Us
Glen Eden Organic Farm is an 8 1/2 acre property nestled in the Sahtlam Hills west of Duncan on the old Cowichan Lake Road. The property is set back, and connected to, the highway by a long panhandle driveway. It is covered, for the most part, by forest and pasture with the exception of a one acre mixed berry field, a 2000 sq. ft. greenhouse and 3000 sq. ft. market garden.
Certified organic from 2005 - 2020 with Islands Organic Producers Association (IOPA), we grow a wide variety of market garden vegetables, berries and herbs. Production fields are fenced but the rest of the property remains natural allowing deer and elk to move through and drink from our two ponds. Frequent visits from eagles are common and in spring the swallows return each year to nest and raise their young.
