Your farm is our passion
What gets us up in the morning? Helping you achieve success. Really. More farms will thrive with appropriate agrology advice, support and service - that’s where we come in.
Why Was Pacific Coast Agriculture Started?
Honestly, it was two-fold. One, we recognized a real gap in straightforward, comprehensive agrology support for farms in BC. We continued to hear the same challenges and concerns from farmers across the province:
“We need a real person who understands all of the confusing policy and programs and can help us get started and tell us what we need to do”
And two, we are complete agriculture nerds and entrepreneurs who want nothing more than to work on farms with farmers.
