Our Projects
Move Better Health and Performance - Northbrook, ON.
Our local bank recently shut down. The closest bank is now over 60kms away. This was a big blow to our aging demographic. The community wanted something positive to fill the space. We really hope to provide that. We upgraded Mitch's clinic and added a gym space. We'll be offering chiropractic services, personal training and small group training as well!
Goals for 2026: Open 24 hour access to the gym facility.
Move Better Basecamp Retreats
We have the privilege of living on 96.5 pristine acres of the rugged Canadian Shield. Some beautifully groomed trails surround a ~10 acre pond. An abundance of native plants, and endless trees makes a perfect habitat for wildlife and an ideal place to recharge and unwind.
We currently have three 4-season bell tents on platforms with private fire pits and hammocks.
Reservations on hold for renovations.
Goals for 2026: Build our 'events barn' and upgrade tents to bunkies.
The Better Homestead
This is our home base! We make our own bread and grow and raise a lot of our own food.
We have laying hens which provide enough eggs for us and our neighbours. We raise and process our own meat chickens.
We have large gardens (raised bed and no dig rows) which are incredibly productive due to our compost and the plentiful pollinators.
We make maple syrup every spring and forage our woodlands for edible treasures.
We have started our flower farm and started building our farmstand.
Goals for 2026: Use our recently built reclaimed window greenhouse to expand the gardens and start a choice mushroom farm!
North of 7 Challenge
A rugged and challenging course. An excuse for our friends to leave the city and for locals to be active in their backyard! This year will be our 5th annual event.
Goals for 2026: Turn the North of 7 Challenge into a weekend event! More challenges, more entertainment, more awesome memories! @northof7challenge
