We are a small urban farm on the ALR in Kamloops.

It is our aim to provide an example of the way to a sustainable living from small parcels of farm land.

OUR STORY

In 2005 Tricia Sullivan and Leo Lindinger were house hunting.  There was a requirement for good-sized office space. Outdoor space for Leo’s geology equipment, and Tricia’s landscape equipment was important. We had not gone looking for a farm, but the residence on Dairy Road fits the bill. Since Leo had grown up on 12 acres with large gardens helping the family provide food for their table.  Tricia had raised her children on organic food produced in her home garden in Kamloops, this seemed to be the ideal place.

Upon the discovery of a well-insulated chicken coop, meat birds were grown to provide chicken for their table.  A neighbour  said, “sheep are easy”,  so we bought his 4 pregnant ewes to graze the hay field and pastures. Twelve years later, steep learning curves included; many fences and gates have been added to keep flocks in and or out of spaces.

We have enough garden space to keep us in vegetables from harvest to planting.  We do provide our own meat, and trade with neighbours who grow that which we do not.  The garden includes a large section for organic garlic, which we sell along with the chicken and turkey. We have met our goal for sustainability for ourselves. The land will carry the size of sheep flock by rotation of hay field and pasture. We would encourage others to make productive and sustainable use of the Agricultural Land Reserve within the City of Kamloops.

ANIMAL MANAGEMENT & CARE PHILOSOPHY

Our birds are raised naturally on organic grass pastures, under fruit trees. They hunt bugs in the shrubs and trees and shelter there in the shade. They are fed a non-medicated and non-GMO grain produced in BC. In late summer and fall, the turkeys also glean from the gardens. Sullindeo Farm has their poultry processed in government inspected facilities, and it is ready for cooking or freezer.
