Keating Farm

Happy Easter! If you are looking for special local food for your Easter holiday, we have you covered!

We have several gorgeous smoked hams, pork tenderloins, and lamb leg roasts if you are looking for a special centrepiece for your holiday table. If you are planning a more casual barbeque or brunch, we have lots of roasting chickens and delicious pork chops, ribs, bacon, and sausages available.

To place an order, please contact us by DM, email or phone. We look forward to hearing from you!

Thanks for your business and supporting local farms!

It’s lambing season!!! Another set of triplets were born this morning. Mags, our livestock guardian dog and an essential part of our farm team, is hard at work this time of year keeping our flock and new babies safe. You can tell he loves his job. Look at the smile on his face!

He’s a proud flock/family member (‘brother from another mother’ 😝) supporting and protecting every lamb born on the farm 🥰 Thanks Mags for everything you do! We love you buddy!

Thanks to everyone who came out to CVRD’s public meetings on Tuesday to discuss the draft agricultural zoning bylaw! The community feedback was unanimous and consistent with the feedback farmers provided to CVRD in summer 2023.

Don’t forget!… All residents of the CVRD electoral areas should complete both of the online surveys and the deadline is tomorrow, Friday, November 8th so don’t delay!

Strengthening agriculture requires more than just protecting agricultural land, we also need to consider and support the needs of our farmers! In order for agriculture to thrive in Cowichan Valley, we need healthy land and happy farmers!
