Two Divisions. One Mission.
Shackan Nursery works to strengthen the resilience of both land and people. Through Rewilding, we combine ancestral knowledge with modern growing technology to produce healthy, hardy, climate-ready native plants that support ecological restoration, rewilding and balanced ecosystems.
Climate-ready native plants for ecological restoration, rewilding, habitat recovery and erosion control across the Nicola Valley and Interior BC.
Fresh locally grown produce, community CSA baskets, and wholesale supply from 100% Indigenous-owned Shackan Nursery.

Ancestral Knowledge. Modern Growing Technology.
Native plants for healthier landscapes. Fresh food for stronger communities.
Shackan Nursery is a 100% Indigenous-owned native plant nursery and food producer in British Columbia’s Nicola Valley.
We grow native plants for restoration and reclamation projects across BC while expanding greenhouse, hydroponic and outdoor food production to strengthen regional food supply and Indigenous food sovereignty.

Planning a Large-Scale Restoration Project
The plants your project needs may take years to source, propagate and grow.
Bring Shackan into the project early and we can plan production around your species, provenance, quantities, specifications and delivery schedule. Whether you’re planning 5,000 plants next season or a much larger restoration project several years from now, early planning creates more options.
RIGHT PLANT, RIGHT PLACE, RIGHT PURPOSE.
FOOD SOVEREIGNTY
Community Baskets · CSA Boxes · Wholesale Produce
Healthy, locally grown produce picked at perfect ripeness for exceptional freshness, flavour and quality. Grown close to home for Shackan and neighbouring communities.
