Sustainable Community Living

On Cortes Island, BC, Canada

BlueJay Lake Farm is a diversified, organic, off-grid homestead on 350 acres nestled in Green Valley, which lies in the heart of Cortes Island.


The farm is a peaceful, pristine, and natural environment where children, and the young at heart alike, grow wild and free, healthy and strong. We are connected to nature and its seasons, and can enjoy the pleasure of working with the land to support ourselves and our community.


The farm is family and community-run, and focuses on a way of being that is healthy and sustainable for the land and those who live on it. Our production of fruit and vegetables, dairy, eggs, meat and farm products is mainly consumed by those of us who live on the farm, although we do offer some products for sale.


With its valley, mountains, lakes, forests, bluffs, and marshes, BlueJay Lake Farm is a magical place. There are wonderful opportunities to hike, cycle, swim, canoe, and explore.


We enjoy meeting new people and are pleased to share our farm and vision with those interested through WWOOF and SOIL or through living here.
