They were born and raised on a farm in Northern, B.C. Although their lives took them on different career paths, they have always come back to farming.
They understand the hard work and dedication that a farmer needs. They understand the anxieties, the unpredictability, the sleepless nights, and the early mornings. It is endless hard
work. They took their life experiences, farming experiences, and career experiences and used them in a way that would help not only the farmer but the consumer.

“I have worked and managed a large market garden while I prepare my own farm for production. I have watched and paid close attention to the concerns, anxieties, and the struggles. The lady I work with is the hardest, most humble, and dedicated farmer I know. I have paid attention to her anxieties, her heartbreak, and her worries.
She hadn’t had price increases in years, big stores were not offering an increase in price, ever. Even when fuel, property taxes, and wages continued to rise. Stores that market themselves to
the public as supporting local farmers were the worst! I grew more and more frustrated. One day, I had a lengthy conversation with the farm accountant, he is kind and empathetic. He told me in a very candid and blunt way that I had to encourage the farm to shut down. She was working for nothing and he was worried she would lose everything. I had to do better, I needed to do better.
I was ashamed to tell her, I wanted to wait until I had a plan, there was no way I was adding to her already sleepless nights. Here I am, I have been a realtor for over 16 years, winning top
awards and being in the top 100 realtors in western Canada. I could sell myself but I couldn’t help this person that worked a million times harder than I, succeed.
Numerous things happened in my daily struggle and search for a better way. A big wholesaler called from the city, they offered $9.00/lb for beautiful, flawless, and fresh organic garlic. They
wanted to pay the exact same amount that the store that markets themselves as supporting the “local farmer” paid. I was furious. I was happy about the sale but felt furious. These produce managers that are so kind, appear so grateful but constantly tell me that that is all they can afford to pay, they literally were going to pay a minimum of $2.00 more a pound to a big wholesaler that was keen to order bulk and plan ahead. I grew tired, felt like giving up, but then I just came up with the idea of Farmer Fresh Delivery
SHOP FRESH & LOCAL
Can you imagine not having to worry and having to chase unpaid invoices, delinquent accounts? Not spending endless hours, weekends, and physical labour setting up and dismantling farmer’s markets. Where there is no guarantee of what you will make that day or what the weather will do.
Can you imagine cutting your freight and labour costs because you are able to harvest weekly right out of your field? You don’t have to worry about storage, freezing weather, and excruciating
Harvests.
Can you imagine a steady income that will be directly deposited into your account? You know what you are going to make for the week before you even deliver it, and it’s prepaid!
This vision was created not only to benefit farms and more importantly the farmer, but the consumer is getting a product that is fresh, reliable, and delivered to their door. Stop the stress of others representing your product that you work so hard to grow.
Can you imagine a program that sets you up with your market? No marketing, no fighting for proper price increases from wholesalers. No selling! All you do is print off your list of prepaid orders on Monday and deliver on Friday! You get proper market value for your product, you are represented in a way that no one can forget to rotate or mist properly.

I am tired of big corporations making money off of the literal blood, sweat, and tears of the farmer. I did better, we did better! We created a tool that brings the farm directly to their proper consumer.
