Program Overview
The Artisan Garden Group is a local business that has been operating since 1986 and is comprised of long-time proud New Westminster residents who have supported and volunteered with minor sports associations, youth groups & non-profit organizations in the Royal City & Lower Mainland for 25 years.
To extend our community involvement, we have created a unique fundraising program that is environmentally friendly and entirely turn-key so sports leagues, schools, community groups & non-for-profit organizations can raise funds in these financially challenging times.
We wanted to provide an alternative to the standard chocolates, cookies and Pub Nights by providing meaningful and practical landscaping materials that are useful throughout the entire calendar year.
Key elements of the fundraising partnership platform:
All materials and products sold will earn your group up to $5 per product! Fundraisers are designed for cooperative participation so depending on the event, Artisan will facilitate easy-to-handle bagging stations for your group. Along with a little bagging, all that’s left is sharing the word through social media and word of mouth to all of your friends and family.
Based on a registration or a contact list of 300+ individuals, if each individual sold 2 products, your group would raise over $3000!
Spring Products
All orders will be processed through the fundraiser website with donation amounts to be allocated to your respective Organization at the conclusion of each campaign. Each organization involved will set a pick up location and date for which orders will be fulfilled and will contact those who have contributed to their respected fundraising campaign.
There are several products available to choose from such as: 40L Bags of Soil Amender, All-Natural Apple Juice, BC Firewood Bags and Locally roasted Coffee.

Testimonials
“Artisan has been delivering a unique blend of composted vegetable soil to the school gardens we support at Forest Grove Elementary, Windsor Elementary and Lochdale Community School. Our students love the soil delivery event so much, some of our alumni students return from high school to participate in this event. Because of Artisan’s dedication to sourcing the best materials for their soil, the results over the years have been strong resilient healthy plants.”
“The Ladybug Community Garden has been operating since 2010 and we’ve been using products from Artisan Garden Group for many of those years. The Artisan Garden Group has been an excellent partner during these years, assisting us with soil, compost and amendments appropriate for each season and type of plant.”
“Stephen and Artisan have been first-rate partners with the annual spring Soil & Manure sale for 15 years. Our one-day event has raised over $25,000 for Chown in the last five years alone. We look forward to many more Manure Sales with Artisan in the future.”
“The New Westminster Secondary School has been running a mushroom manure sale for over 20 years. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the annual sale was to be postponed but Jordan Beattie of Artisan called and kept it alive, donating manure and making arrangements to bag it and deliver it with 100% profits going to the athletic department of the school. In the me-first society we live in today (especially prevalent during this pandemic), we need more humans like Jordan Beattie.”
