Farm Tour & Potluck at Thank You Farm (Langley, BC) | 21231 36 Ave
Cultural Experiences
You’re invited to a Farm Tour and Potluck at Thank You Farm in Langley, BC! If you’re curious what
land matching
is all about – or just want to check out what your local farmers are up to – join us for the event. Come out to connect with other farmers and food lovers, share a delicious potluck meal and learn about free-range egg production.
We'll enjoy a farm tour with leasing farmer Chungyun Kim, who is the owner and operator of Thank You Farm. Prior to farming full-time, Chungyun was a small business owner. He studied forestry in South Korea and after moving to Canada, kept chickens, ducks and goats as a hobby. In 2024, he decided to turn his interest in agriculture into a full-time career and reached out to the
B.C. Land Matching Program
(BCLMP). Chungyun was matched to 3.5 acres of land through the BCLMP, where he now runs Thank You Farm, producing free-range eggs for his local community.
During the farm tour, we will hear from Chungyun about his first year operating the farm and his plans for the future. In addition to his livestock (which include goats and 200 chickens), he is currently collaborating with the landholder to add vegetables to his operation. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions about land sharing, livestock farming and farm startup. The tour will wrap up with a potluck meal, with plenty of time to socialize.
Ve-Jane, the Metro Vancouver-Fraser Valley Land Matcher, will also be there to discuss how she can help you find a farmer for your land or farmland where you can build your dream farm business. Both farmers seeking land and farmland holders are encouraged to attend – as well as anyone who loves food, farming and getting out onto the land.
We can't wait to see you there!
