Comprised of 65 acres, it is located approximately 15 km. west of Quesnel, BC in the heart of "GoldRush Country". It was established as a bonafide farm in April, 2002 when Heloise and Ted moved to the North Cariboo.  Heloise and Ted are both Registered Professional Foresters (RPF's) in addition to other other hats they wear.  Heloise is President of FARMED (North Cariboo Agricultural Marketing Association / www.farmed.ca ) and a Director with the BC Agritourism Alliance (www.agritourismbc.ca). Ted works full time off the farm with the Ministry of Forests as the Woodlot Forester in the Quesnel Forest District.

Heloise and Ted believe in diversification and accomplish through “Farming with the season”.  The farm offers a variety of products and incorporates both conventional and non-conventional agricultural practices.  This includes agroforestry, agritourism, and non-timber forest products.  Marketing of its products are done at the farm gate, through farmers markets and via the internet.  In November, 2007 the onsite gift store “The Antler Shed Gift Shop” opened which has been a successful addition. 

Moose Meadows Farm is currently is the only ACCREDITED AGRITOURISM farm in the Cariboo – Chilcotin Region of British Columbia.   It has a simple philosophy which it is proud of... "All living things can be enjoyed simply for who and what they are".  It also believes in being friendly; for the environment, the people that visit and the "residents" (including the humans) that call it home. The farm operates under an ENVIRONMENTAL FARM PLAN through Canada - British Columbia Environmental Farm Plan Program.
