VOICE 185- Arzeena Hamir and Neil Turner, owners of Amara Farm Amara Farm
“Amara Farm is about community on many different levels, from communities of plants and people to our supporters and customers. At its heart, it’s about building community. It’s also about reconnecting with some of life’s fundamental truths. Farming has so much to teach us. You have to touch it, smell it, and feel it.”

Amara Farm is well known for its certified organic farming, garlic and blueberries in the Comox Valley, but its impact goes far beyond the fields.

Arzeena Hamir’s journey into farming began with a passion for agriculture and community development. After witnessing the challenges farmers faced with chemical-based agriculture in Thailand, she became inspired to pursue sustainable and organic farming — a path that eventually led to Amara Farm.

Today, Arzeena is not only a dedicated farmer but also a powerful force in the community, recently re-elected as Electoral Area B Regional Director👏👏

From nurturing the land to supporting the people around her, Arzeena’s story is a reminder that growing a farm can also mean growing a stronger community🫶🌱

“It’s an extension of who we are and what we hope to be in our community. We’re just condiment producers on the side of a bigger thing.”

Meet Stephanie & Brody of The Mustard Lady — a local Comox Valley family business filled with creativity, friendship, unexpected flavours, and a whole lot of heart!🫶

From discovering their favourite mustard to eventually taking over the beloved local business, their journey feels a little bit like kismet.

Since 2022, they’ve made the business their own while honouring its legacy — from working with local farmers and creative collaborations to giving by-products a second life. Their mustards are more than just condiments; they’re a reflection of the people, stories, and community around them.
Because sometimes, even a humble condiment can be a powerful medium for the kind of change you want to see in the world.

Once you get to know the couple behind the mustard revolution, you’ll want to taste their amazing flavours for yourself — and discover the stories and meaning behind every jar💛🩷💚💜

“I started Sacred Cuisine with the goal of sharing Palestinian culinary heritage with the world, along with its stories. It is an invitation to explore the history of the Palestinian plate and of Palestine itself. “

If you have the chance to experience Sacred Cuisine by Palestinian Chef Izzeldin during his Canadian West Coast tour, consider yourself lucky.

Created in collaboration with Amnesty International Vancouver and Apartheid-Free Communities, Sacred Cuisine is much more than a meal. It is a deeply moving gathering that invites us to think differently about food—and about the stories, identities, histories, and relationships that food carries with it.

VOICE was also fortunate enough to sit down with Chef Izzeldin during his incredibly busy tour across BC.

What is food?

There is no definite answer. But perhaps it includes friendship, understanding, learning, identity, history, and the possibility of peaceful resolution to some of the most challenging and complicated issues our world faces today.

Read one of the most inspiring interviews VOICE has shared to date ☝️Link in bio.

Special thanks to Chef Izzeldin, Lynn Valley United Church , Amnesty International Canada , Apartheid Free Communities , and Kat Harris. 🍉🫶✨

VOICE 182 - Awatief Daniels and Ben Henzler, founders of Lavender & Black

“We are about naturally grown, healthy botanicals transformed into thoughtful, purposeful products. Every decision, from what we grow and how we make it to what goes into each product, is made with intention.”

Not every lavender farm is created the same.
Some reshape the land.
Others choose to listen to it.

Nestled on Salt Spring Island, Lavender&Black has spent a decade cultivating lavender while preserving the century-old forest that surrounds it. Every bloom, every scent, and every bottle reflects the landscape itself.

We were fortunate to visit during peak bloom and sit down with Awatief and Ben to learn how nature shapes not only their farm, but also the philosophy behind everything they create.

Their thoughtfully crafted wellness products showcase the unique lavender varieties and botanicals they grow and distill, inviting you to slow down and experience a moment of calm - as if you were wandering through the lavender fields 😍💜

Their lavender story is now live on our VOICE. (link in bio)
