A Victoria family is transforming this Saanich property into a thriving one-hectare flower farm with the assistance of four sheep, 10 heritage chickens, a White Swiss Shepherd dog, two cats, several goldfish — and wheelbarrow loads of energy.
An attractive, property on a bucolic stretch of Burnside Road, a short drive from Victoria General Hospital, recently caught the eye and captured the imagination of three generations of a Victoria family.
Although the property was just purchased two years ago it is already taking shape and is being featured in the Victoria Conservatory of Music’s garden tour on Mother’s Day Weekend. “All we wanted to do to the house was paint it inside and modernize it with some contemporary lighting.” The four adults feel lucky to have heard about the property before it was on the market and to have found a place that previous owners put so much beauty into.
They hope to have a disused water feature up and running again, said Ariel who has a background in design and art. She previously worked at Apple as a creative designer, arts educator and also worked as an event planner and in tourism.
