Herbs & SpicesClever Crow Herbs and Spices will bring the wow factor to the meals you create. We grow as many of the herbs as our climate allows for; like basil, thyme, oregano, savory, marjoram, and rosemary. We dry our herbs, and do all the grinding, blending, and packaging, right here, in small batches. We have 100% control to ensure we are bringing you the best and freshest products possible.
The FieldsOur 5 acres is a special place made up of sections of long vegetable garden beds, grasslands with wild flowers, natural forested areas, and a tributary of the Black Creek, which runs along the edge of the back field. We encourage hedgerows where we have planted fruit trees, elderberries and allow the wild Nootka roses to flourish.
The KitchenOur kitchen is the Heartbeat of the Farm Store building. It is where all of our production happens. You will usually find Lia there, grinding and blending spices and sea salts. Farmer Brian dons his chef hat (he is a Canadian Red Seal Chef) a couple of times a month and is responsible for our delicious soups, chilies, Brian’s Burger Relish, and Sambal Sauce.
RecipesOur recipes are more than just instructions; they are stories written in flavors, each ingredient a carefully chosen character that contributes its unique voice to the final ensemble. We embrace the symphony of tastes, balancing the sweet, the savory, the spicy, and the tangy in perfect harmony.
Our farming practices follow organic growing principles. We use composts, manures, and cover crops to build soils and encourage microbial life, that in turn, grow great vegetables.

We have put up over 30 birdhouses around the farm and they are thriving with swallows, robins, chickadees, and other wild birds we do not know the names of. Diversification on your land, of animals, plants, birds, insects, etc, ensures a healthy ecosystem for all.

We have a load of new QR codes that we`ll be introducing over the next few weeks. They will start showing up on our spice blends and salad greens and will take you to recipes and videos highlighting them! We`ve been wanting to do this for a long time, and that time has come! Thanks to @williamqlee for all your help.

We seem to be in a little "snow belt", here, in Black Creek. We haven`t seen the garden beds since November. It is below zero and the wind is blowing. More snow is on the way for the final week before Christmas. We are open for a few more days ( unless we are snowed in) before our winter hibernation begins. And holy heck, this mornings ocean dip was the coldest yet...Looking forward to warmer climes and long lazy swims with @farmer_brian_
