Arnold Falk

Board Member at Canadian Federation of Independent Business

Arnold started Tanglebank Country Gardens in 1996 in Abbotsford, where he was born and raised. With the addition of a gift shop in the late 90s and a bistro in 2012, Arnold and his wife transformed the store into a destination you can relax, reconnect and enjoy nature. Arnold received the 2000 Business Excellence Award in agriculture and the 2005 Business Excellence Award in tourism, recreation and leisure from Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce.

Prior to Tanglebank Country Gardens, Arnold owned and ran a landscape and maintenance company from 1993 until 2003. He studied Horticulture at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, where he graduated in 1995.

Arnold continues to nurture his passion for gardening at his own store by fostering a diverse plant garden with his family. The family runs workshops for children which explore food cultivation and spread agricultural awareness.
