We are thrilled to continue celebrating Island Good's 5-year anniversary by featuring Island Good businesses in our #IslandGoodAtoZ series. Today's highlight goes to @gatheringplacetrading!

Founded in 2003 on Cortes Island, BC, Gathering Place Trading is a family business that started small and grew steadily. Now, 17 years later, they have a packaging facility and warehouse in downtown Campbell River.

With a dynamic team of employees, including owners Lovena and Ryan, Gathering Place Trading specializes in organic spices, Canadian-grown organic herbs, artisan sea salts, teas, and dried fruit. One of their core values is sourcing products farmer direct, which means they personally visit the farms they work with, ensuring fair-trade practices and selecting partners that benefit local communities and the planet's sustainability. 🌱

But their commitment doesn't stop there! Gathering Place Trading donates 1% of their gross profit to grassroots projects supporting women and children. They also prioritize sourcing Canadian products whenever possible, showcasing a Canadian line consisting of 14 organic culinary herbs and spices, two of which grow on their small farm on Cortes Island.

By "knowing the farmers" who grow what they sell, Gathering Place Trading ensures the freshest, highest quality ingredients for an exceptional culinary experience. 🍴

Whether you're passionate about food security, reducing your carbon footprint, strengthening the Island economy, or simply desire excellent local products, Island Good is here to guide the way!
