Spruce Cottage Farm

Spruce Cottage Farm Spruce Cottage Farm provides locally grown bedding plants and produce to the Kluane region. Welcome to Spruce Cottage Farm!

My name is Jolene Billwiller and I am delighted to share my passion for all things gardening with you. Spruce Cottage Farm is located at various spots throughout Haines Junction, Yukon, gateway to the magnificent Kluane country, in the traditional territory of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations - a challenging growing area that keeps me on my toes (snow in June, anyone?)! I grow vegetable, f

lower and herb starts for sale as well as produce for myself and for market. I also save seeds, grow cut and dried flowers and culinary and medicinal herbs, as well as hosting seasonal workshops and providing organic gardening education. My gardening inspiration comes from many places: my landscape, my wish to grow food for myself and others, my desire to share my gardening knowledge and the gratitude I feel for my mentors; plus its super-fun! It is so satisfying to cook with vegetables and herbs you have grown yourself or to brighten your home with vibrant flowers nurtured by your own hands. Let me inspire you to create a garden space to suit your needs and desires - be it a two acre farm or a collection of containers. Thank you for visiting my page, be sure to check out my Website too!

It's Market Day! Our final Market of the summer season (and hopefully we don't get rained out, again!).

Join us from 4pm-6pm, on the Alaska Highway beside the Little Green Apple.

Greetings! Here we are at the end of May already - and the full moon is on Sunday, which means we might actually be able to start leaving plants outside unprotected and transplanting our gardens!

At our latitude, our weather generally shifts for the better at this late-Spring full moon (and a quick glance at the weather forecast is looking good too, once the moon has passed). Here we go!
