[Ravenhill Herb Farm]

Two acres of herb gardens looking over a peaceful valley and the Saanich Inlet. Sheep graze in the meadow along with Joker the donkey and a goat called Vincent.

The herb farm owns
Andrew Yeoman, the Gardener, and
Noel Richardson, the Cook,
both of whom summon spare moments
and abounding inspiration to write about gardening, food, and life.

The farm is centrally located 15 miles north of Victoria, and just:

  • three miles from Butchart Gardens,
  • three miles from the airport and
  • five miles from the Swartz Bay ferry terminal.

But, really, Ravenhill Farm exists in another world.
