FRIDAY 6TH MARCH 2026- CLUB MEETING

​​​

Speaker: Alex Teare

Subject: Seeds Starting Seminar

​Overview: 

Alex was raised on a farm in England, where her love of gardening and growing things began early. After moving to Canada, she studied horticulture at Malaspina College in Nanaimo in the 1980s, but life took her down a different path for a while — spending the next 25 years as a chef and restaurant owner.

Eventually, She found her way back to her gardening roots. She worked with several landscaping companies before taking on the role of Head Gardener on a large estate on Salt Spring Island. One of the highlights of that time was growing produce for the estate kitchen and managing an extensive cutting flower garden.

Ten years ago,Alex joined the West Coast Seed team, combining her horticultural background, hands-on growing experience, and love of working with people. Gardening has always been at the heart of what she does, and she is grateful to have come full circle doing work she truly enjoys.
