Whitaker Farm, established 2014, was founded with the desire to feed our families, our community and our soil as ethical stewards for the future.
We focus on using best practices to grow our vegetables, feeding our community year round using a combination of storage crops, climate appropriate growing and season extension tools.
You can find our produce at the Comox Valley Farmer’s Market and Cumberland Market, and our farm store.
So many plants heading to market tomorrow — ready to help you get your fingernails dirty!
Veggies, herbs, flowers — let’s get growing!

It’s our farm anniversary — 11 years!
I know we should’ve thrown a party last year (10 feels like a big deal), but we were too busy. Story of our lives.
This little sign — the one that says whether we’re open or closed — it’s kind of special. So is our Whitaker Farm sign. Both were designed by an amazing person: @inkmitts
They cruise into and out of our lives between epic bike trips around the world or up north. The kind of person you’re lucky to cross paths with.
That’s one of the best things about running this farm: the incredible people you meet, each with their own wild talents and generous spirits.
11 years. Grateful and amazed.

What a great day!
Thank you to everyone who came out—what a joy it was to chat plants and hear all about your gardens.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing moms who spent the day nurturing themselves and their green thumbs!
I’m reminded of astronaut Chris Hadfield’s words: astronauts and gardeners share a key trait—relentless, competent optimism. That energy was everywhere today.
Happy growing, friends!
And remember:
Wait for overnight lows of 10°C to plant your tomatoes, and 10–12°C for peppers and cucurbits. Consistent warmth = happy plants!
Thank you also to Dianne and Avi, who created a wonderful kids tent, and the amazing Taylor who worked the cash register all day despite being 17 days away from bringing a nugget into this world! It takes a village to raise a farm
