Our take

Kristen and James Miskelly started Satinflower in 2013 to grow plants native to southern Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands. The Metchosin site on Metchosin Road carries potted plants and seed packets and grows a native seed field. Everything is grown without herbicides, pesticides or chemical fertilizers, and the nursery also runs MeadowMakers, a program for people restoring meadows.
