About SilverStar Veggies

SilverStar Veggies is a one acre market garden at the base of the SilverStar foothills on the edge of Vernon, founded in spring 2021 by Eric and Miho.

They farm rented land matched through the BC Young Agrarians Land Matching Program. Eric brings more than fifteen years of agricultural experience in Ireland and Canada. Miho has a background in French fine dining, gardening and foraging.

The garden is not certified organic, and no chemicals or pesticides are used on it. A small acreage means the list here is short and changes often: purple kohlrabi, heirloom tomatoes and blue hubbard squash have all come through.

Why we work with them

Eric and Miho started this garden in 2021 on rented land, which is how a lot of good young farmers begin around here. One acre means everything is grown deliberately.

Nothing sprayed, and a short list that changes with what they have. We would rather support a farm at this stage and carry a handful of things done properly than fill a page with volume.
