Horse boarding, farm stays, and small-batch handmade soaps — all from our family farm, 1 km off the highway in beautiful Cowichan Bay.
We started Little Blackbird Farm in 2019 with a simple belief: horses are happier together, and people are too. Our 16.5-acre farm in Cowichan Bay is built around that philosophy — expansive track systems for the herd, open pasture, and a pace of life that reconnects you with the land.
Over the years, we've grown to offer farm stays for those who need a breath of fresh air, and handmade soaps crafted from the botanicals that grow right here on the property.
Our boarding philosophy centres on herd life and natural movement. Horses here aren't stabled away from the world — they're out, together, living the way horses were meant to live. Year-round turnout, thoughtful feed management, and a team that genuinely cares.
Turnout and herd life for horses is a pivotal part of our boarding philosophy. We believe horses are happier together — and that a horse who can move, graze, and interact freely is a healthier, more balanced horse.
