HOW WE STARTED
In the late '80s, if you asked Dave Murphy what
he thought his future held, he probably wouldn't
have said "fertilizer baron." But that's how it
turned out. Now Dave manufactures a line of
100% natural and organic fertilizers under the
Welcome Harvest Farm Ltd. brand from his home
on Texada island................ take a tour of our
farm

.................Mr. Murphy first came to BC's
Sunshine Coast in the early 70s, "I was in love and
I followed her," he says, but he was also among
the first wave of back-to-the-landers, who were
leaving their urban upbringing behind. Welcome
Harvest Farm grew out of that notion. As
Mr.Murphy cast around looking for organic
solutions to increase the productivity of his market
gardening efforts, he began to realize that there
wasn't realty anything out there. Knowing what he
needed, Dave located a source for the minerals,
trucked it in himself, and, in an act of foresight,
brought in twice as much as he needed, hoping to
sell it to neighbors and pay for the transportation
costs. The material went so quickly that he did it
again and again for the next couple of years,
making a small profit in the process. Eventually,
he bought his own mixing equipment and created
packaging. While it may have been a hard sell in
the beginning, now people understand organic
gardening and the value of sustainable agriculture.
