Where can I find information on how to start or buy a berry farm?
Please check for latest statistics and trends to compliment the BC Ministry of Agriculture and Lands ” A Guide to Starting a New Farm Enterprise” [PDF] which is available on the ministry’s website. Farm listings are available through many realtors in province. Potential buyers should examine the gross farm income and farm expenses from farm income taxes when making purchasing decisions. Obtaining information from horticultural consultants with knowledge of your area and specific crops is very useful. The factsheet, ” Resources for Berry Growers” [PDF] lists sources of important services and information.
