Gathering Place Trading Ltd. is a majority women-owned Canadian company dedicated to sourcing and crafting high-quality, organic foods with integrity and heart. Founded by Lovena and Ryan Harvey in 2003, our family-run business has grown from a grassroots operation on Cortes Island to a nationally distributed brand based in Campbell River, BC. For over 22 years, we have built trusted relationships with small-scale Canadian and international farmers who share our commitment to sustainability, fair trade, and organic agriculture. All of our products are handcrafted and packaged locally, with 100% of our labor based in Campbell River. We proudly offer a growing number of Canadian-grown items—13 and counting—while ensuring that every product we sell is Canadian-made. As a women-led company, our leadership team is composed entirely of women, and 80% of our staff are women. We are passionate about supporting food security, ecological stewardship, and ethical supply chains—from farmer to family, for love of the Earth. Gathering Place Trading stands for transparency, community, and values-driven growth in the natural food industry.
