10 Acres
Farm + Restaurants
We are Local. We are Sustainable.
We are dedicated to quality, innovative food and friendly, attentive service.
The Food
Local, seasonal & sustainable whenever possible.
What we don’t grow and ethically raise on our own farm we proudly source from other, like minded farmers + food purveyors. Our local partnerships are truly meaningful to us from where we source ingredients to the wines we offer on our wine lists.
Our menus are inspired by the ebbs and flows of our changing seasons. Whenever possible we utilize the very ingredients we grow at our 10 Acres Farm.
The Farm
We know where it grows.
We know where it grows, because we grow it right here at our 10 Acres Farm. We strive to showcase local ingredients by utilizing our own seasonal crops from the farm at our 4 dining locations & by sourcing from local producers whenever possible.
We are inspired to grow a range of different foods at 10 Acres Farm – some familiar, some new, always unique and nutritious. Our vegetables are mainly grown from heirloom seeds and are selected for their outstanding flavours and nutrient value, their suitability to our West Coast climate, and their visual appeal. When possible, we source from small Canadian seed businesses, from varieties that have passed through family generations.
All animals on the farm are grass pastured; this diet is supplemented with non GMO feed, spent grains from Swan’s Brewpub and cooked vegetable scraps from the kitchens at 10 Acres Bistro, Pier, & Commons.
