Located on a 172 acre ALR zoned property within the Alberni Valley, Shelter Farm grows 70 varieties of fruits, vegetables and herbs.
Our produce helps support our clients and also generates revenue to support our housing and recovery programs. In fact, Shelter Farm is home to the Alberni Valleys first Therapeutic Recovery Centre which immerses participants in the therapeutic benefits of farm life and we host a Peer Employment Program through a partnership with INEO Employment Services. This program supports people struggling with homelessness or who are at risk of homelessness.
You can now find Shelter Farm’s produce online on our website.
