Heavy Petal

Sooke is a small community at the tip of Vancouver, a coastal getaway, if you will. Sooke Harbour House is a top-notch inn there, with a working garden that not only provides ingredients for the inn's renowned restaurant, but also a beautiful landscaped setting. We recently found a tour of said garden over at Heavy Petal...

 
 

The garden emphasizes herbs, salad greens, and edible flowers. Over 200 species of edible plants are grown on the grounds. One hundred percent of the gardens’ plants are edible, although not all of them are used regularly.

Check out the full tour of the Sooke Harbour House garden at Heavy Petal.

Small geographical note: it's actually at the tip of Vancouver Island, which is a ferry ride away from Vancouver. It's a destination restaurant, for sure, and great to visit even if you don't have a room at the House.
