Things to Do
Farms & Orchards
The natural elements that make this lake region ideal for growing grapes, also mean perfect growing conditions for apples, cherries, and other produce as well. Our hard-working farmers are an integral part of our community's rich character.
Fun, fresh-picked from the tree
Our beautiful lakeside country is dotted with orchards and farms where you can pick your own fruit and picnic on manicured grounds.
The welcoming farmers of the Okanagan are happy to share the fruits of their labour with you.
