Bees have joined Pillay Farms!
We’re thrilled to announce our new partnership with HoneyDew Bee Collective!
On Sept 27, 2026, we welcomed bee hives to our farm! Together, we’re creating a space where pollinators can thrive while helping our community learn about the vital role bees play in our ecosystem.
HoneyDew Bee Collective is a group of four friends and beekeepers dedicated to making beekeeping more accessible through shared resources, knowledge, and community. Their mission is to support small-scale beekeepers across the Lower Mainland while strengthening local food systems.
This partnership is about more than honey, it’s about supporting our land, protecting pollinators, and building a sweeter, more sustainable future.
We can’t wait to take you along for the journey!
Built From Within
On September 22nd 2026, Deon @iamfitness.apparel and Andrew @gettinfitwithdrew hosted the first Built From Within session at Pillay Farms!
The goal was simple: to be open and transparent, share their experiences, and support others on their health and fitness journeys.
What started as an idea about how they could make a difference and help others turned into something far beyond what they imagined. The day was filled with incredible support, meaningful conversations, amazing giveaways, and people willing to share their stories, connect, and learn from one another.
A huge thank you to everyone who showed up, participated, supported, and helped make the first Built From Within session so special. Your energy and support truly made the day what it was.
And of course, a special thank you to Deon and Andrew for bringing this idea to life. We’re so excited to see where Built From Within goes from here and can’t wait to welcome you back to the farm for more sessions!
A big thank you to all of the amazing supporters and sponsors who helped make the day possible:

Here’s to the first of many Built From Within sessions at the farm!
Yoga in the Park!
This summer, we partnered with Aldergrove Oxygen Yoga & Fitness to offer four outdoor yoga sessions at Pillay Farms!
These sessions brought our community together to enjoy movement, nature, and the beauty of the farm. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came out and participated, and a special thank you to Aldergrove Oxygen Yoga & Fitness and all of the wonderful yoga instructors for organizing and leading the sessions.
It was truly wonderful to see our community come together at the farm, and we look forward to creating more opportunities like this in the future!
