Garlic scape season is here! 🌿

Our lovely growers! If you’ve got garlic scapes for sale, pop a note in the comments with what you have and which neighbourhood you’re in. Let’s help each other out and share the goodness with our farm family! ❤️

Try this garlic scape pesto recipe below or share yours in the comments: 👇

What You'll Need:

- ½ cup chopped garlic scapes
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- ½ to ¾ cup olive oil (adjust to get the texture you like)
- 2–3 cups freshly grated Parmesan (skip the pre-grated stuff—real cheese makes a difference!)
- Salt to taste (optional)
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Optional: add pine nuts or walnuts for a bit of crunch and richness

How to Make It:

- Place garlic scapes and lemon juice into a food processor with a metal blade. Pulse until coarsely chopped.
- While the machine is running, slowly pour in about ½ cup of olive oil and process until smooth.
- Open the lid, toss in half the Parmesan, and pulse a few times. Add the rest of the cheese and plenty of black pepper, then pulse again to blend.

Drizzle in more olive oil if needed to achieve your ideal pesto consistency.

Use it right away or transfer to jars and freeze for later. So good on pasta, sandwiches, or stirred into veggies!

Dear friends,

We wanted to share a little life update with you — Mint Family Farms is no longer at our Nanaimo location, as the property has welcomed new owners: a lovely local family. If they choose to start their own farm journey, we’ll be the first to cheer them on and will gladly share any news with you.

As for us, we’re taking this summer as a much-needed pause — to rest, reflect, re-organize, and catch up on many things as a family. We’re also on the lookout for a new special place to grow roots again, when the time is right.

In the meantime, our focus will shift online. Through our social media and website, we’ll be sharing tips, inspiration, and knowledge we’ve gathered over these beautiful past seven years — in the areas of home, garden, and natural beauty. We’ll also be spotlighting amazing local Nanaimo and Canadian businesses and markets we truly believe in.

Thank you for being with us, supporting us, and believing in the heart of what we do. Please stay connected — and don’t hesitate to reach out if there’s anything you’d normally ask us about.

With love and deep gratitude,
Iryna & the Mint Family Farms family 🌿
