Show Notes
Join host Chef Jonathan Frazier in this intimate visit to Shamrock Farm, the Comox Valley sanctuary Mike and Shannon Farrell began in 1993. What started as a humble pumpkin patch has blossomed into a biodiverse 20-acre operation, cultivating over 40 vegetable varieties, fragrant lavender, specialty cut flowers, and raising chickens, Nubian goats, and even pigs to support the land and farm family.
Beyond produce, the farm produces handcrafted soaps using fresh goat milk and lavender oil, preserves, and lavender products,all reflecting their ethos of thoughtful, local craftsmanship.
Shamrock Farm thrives through seasonal markets, a roadside farm stand on the honour system, and online sales, building connections one harvest at a time.
