There is a side of Burnaby many people do not expect to find. Beyond town centres and busy streets lies Big Bend, a quieter pocket of South Burnaby where farms, nurseries, and greenhouses continue a long agricultural tradition.

The Burnaby Farm Tour Map is a self-guided way to explore this unique part of the city. With an updated interactive map, seven local stops, and plenty to discover from spring through early fall, it is one of Burnaby’s most distinctive seasonal outings.

What Is the Burnaby Farm Tour Map?

The Burnaby Farm Tour Map links visitors with local farms, nurseries, and garden-focused businesses around Big Bend.

You can explore at your own pace by car or bike, or pick a few stops for a relaxing afternoon outing. Some visitors come for hanging baskets and vegetable starters, while others seek fresh produce, gardening ideas, or just want to experience a different side of Burnaby.

It’s local, laid-back, and refreshingly different from a typical day out.

What’s New This Season

The latest Burnaby Farm Tour features an updated interactive online map that makes planning your route and exploring stops on the go easier. The current version includes seven participating locations across the district.

Stops Worth Discovering on the Burnaby Farm Tour

Each stop offers something a little different, making it easy to build a route that suits your interests.

Sun Tai Sang Farm is a great stop for fresh produce and a chance to experience one of Big Bend’s long-standing agricultural names.

Wing Wong’s Nursery is a practical favourite for gardeners looking for bedding plants, vegetable starters, and everyday planting essentials.

Southwest Garden Supplies is the place to stop if your plans go beyond plants, with soil, mulch, decorative stone, and outdoor project materials.

Why Visit Big Bend?

Big Bend feels unlike any other part of Burnaby. Roads open up, greenhouses line the landscape, and seasonal businesses bring a slower rhythm to the city.

It is a rewarding outing for:

-Gardeners and plant lovers

-Families looking for an outdoor activity

-Visitors seeking hidden gems in Burnaby

-Anyone interested in local history

-Shoppers looking for seasonal plants or produce

Best Time to Visit

The Burnaby Farm Tour is most rewarding from spring through early fall, when nursery season is active, and farms are at their liveliest.

Spring is ideal for seedlings, herbs, and flowering baskets. Summer brings lush displays and produce season. Early fall is still a great time for plant shopping and seasonal browsing.
