Little Tribune Farm and Winery

Little Tribune Farm and Winery is located right across from Little Tribune Bay on Hornby Island.
Our farming is all organic. We do not use any chemical weed control, fertilizers or pesticides. Our focus is on the health of the soil.
overview
When the farm was started in 2003, we started with a three year program of adding organic fertilizers, such as crushed rock phosphate and greensand to the soil. Growing green manure crops, such as fall rye and winter peas, and tilling them in, strengthened the soil, and increased the humus content.
Since planting three acres of blueberries in 2007, and three acres of grapes in 2008, we have continued taking care of the soil, organically.
We use the classic Indiore method of composting, all mechanical weed control, green manure crops, and surface tilling.
