Sailor Saskatoons (previously South Island Saskatoons) is a 7 acre Saskatoon berry orchard located in Cobble Hill, and is probably the largest dedicated Saskatoon berry farm in BC with approximately 7200 berry shrubs.

Monty and Sharon Vanhouwe (and Sharon's parents Carol and Dan Teichrob) moved from Saskatchewan to Vancouver Island in 2013 to begin farming here. After Carol passed away in 2022 and Dan passed away in 2026, Sharon and Monty made the decision to move back to SK to be near family again.

The Sailor brothers, Graeme and Tim, purchased the farm in the summer of 2026 to carry on the business.

The Saskatoon (Amelanchier alnifolia) is a medium sized shrub, or small tree, which belongs to the Rose family. It is closely related to the apple, hawthorn and mountain ash. The Saskatoon is native to the Canadian Prairies, the Northwest Territories, the Yukon, Alaska, British Columbia and the northwestern and north central United States. It has gone by several names including Serviceberries, Juneberries, Shadberries, Sugar Pear, Indian Pear, and more.
