Hello from Fitzgerald Farms!

Established in 2016 Fitzgerald Farms is a 10 acre farmstead located in the beautiful Comox Valley located on Vancouver Island. As a couple of newbies to the farming world Diane and Andrew tried to start out slow, haha, just kidding! They jumped in with both feet and have been running ever since! Taking a piece of land that hadn’t been farmed before they quickly began making changes! Some trees came down were milled and turned into the beautiful red barn that now stands out on the property! What was once a large backyard became the market garden, then came the greenhouse and more garden area which for the last few years has turned out the most amazing vegetables! As well, animals were added of course, starting out with kune kune pigs and Muscovy ducks some dexter cows were added to the menagerie! Right now they are breeding Dorper sheep. Diane began selling at a small farmers market in merville in 2017 and as that market has grown so has her garden! The merville gumboot market is now an established farmers market and Fitzgerald Farms is always there! In 2021 the farm will start selling at the Comox Valley farmers market on Wednesday nights in addition to the Sunday market in Merville. As well, sales of starter veggies will be available through the website and at the farm starting in April.
