Okanagan Cherry Picking Adventure

Immerse yourself in one of the Okanagan's most beloved summer traditions with our exclusive Cherry Picking Adventure. Your experience begins at a family-owned premium orchard that has been cultivating exceptional cherries for generations. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by the orchard owners who will share the fascinating history of cherry cultivation in the Okanagan Valley and explain why this region produces some of the world's finest cherries.

Armed with handcrafted picking baskets and guided by expert orchardists, you'll venture into rows of lush cherry trees laden with perfectly ripe fruit. Learn professional picking techniques that preserve the quality of these delicate fruits as you harvest several premium varieties, each with its own distinctive flavor profile. The orchard's microclimate and sustainable growing practices result in exceptionally sweet, plump cherries that simply can't be compared to store-bought varieties.

After your picking session, retreat to a shaded orchard pavilion for a gourmet picnic lunch featuring seasonal local ingredients. Your meal includes artisanal sandwiches, fresh salads, and of course, cherry-inspired treats prepared by a local chef. Enjoy your lunch with a glass of cherry-infused sparkling wine or craft cider while taking in the spectacular views of Okanagan Lake and the surrounding mountains.

The experience concludes with a hands-on culinary workshop where you'll learn to prepare classic cherry preserves and a signature cherry dessert. Take home your freshly picked cherries, 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 sweetest harvest.
