About This Experience

Experience one of the Okanagan's most beloved summer traditions with our exclusive Peach Picking Adventure. Your journey begins at a family-owned heritage orchard that has been cultivating exceptional peaches for generations. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by the orchard owners who will share fascinating insights about peach cultivation in the Okanagan Valley and explain why this region produces some of the world's juiciest, most flavorful peaches.

Guided by expert orchardists, you'll venture into rows of lush peach trees laden with perfectly ripe fruit. Learn professional picking techniques that preserve the delicate fuzzy skin and prevent bruising as you harvest several premium varieties, each with its own distinctive flavor profile and texture. The orchard's microclimate and sustainable growing practices result in exceptionally sweet, aromatic peaches that simply can't be compared to store-bought varieties.

After your picking session, retreat to a shaded orchard pavilion for a farm-to-table lunch featuring seasonal local ingredients and, of course, creative dishes that showcase the peaches you've just harvested. Enjoy fresh peach salad, grilled peaches with local cheese, and a signature peach dessert, all paired with a glass of Okanagan wine or craft cider. As you dine, take in the spectacular views of the lake and surrounding mountains that make the Okanagan such a special destination.

The experience concludes with a hands-on culinary workshop where you'll learn to prepare classic peach preserves that will allow you to enjoy the taste of Okanagan summer long after your visit. Take home your freshly picked peaches, a jar of preserves, and recipe cards as delicious souvenirs of your Okanagan adventure. This immersive experience connects you with the agricultural heritage of the region while creating lasting memories of summer's most perfect fruit.
