Our Roots
Aemilia Gardens is a local farm situated between Nelson and Castlegar in the southern mouth of the Slocan Valley. The flower farm was started in the spring of 2022 and is run by Emily with the helping hand of her fiance Matthew who already owns and operates Linden Lane Farms.
Back in 2019 Emily made the decision to move to the West Kootenays from Saskatchewan to help her fiance with his passion for farming and passion for feeding people. The growing season of 2019 definitely sparked an interest in farming for her. Something about working outside in the sun, sinking your hands in the dirt all day and working alongside her fiance felt peaceful. But life and financial obligations brought her back to her welding career for a couple more years. Fast forward to today, Aemilia Gardens is born and we are growing over 50 varieties of organically grown specialty cut flowers for the local people of Nelson, Castlegar and in between!
