Our “Veggie Shack” is a unique vegetable/fruit stand situated at the main entrance to our farm along Highway 93/95. We operate entirely on the cash only honour system and stock our shack with fresh picked produce from our gardens daily. We grow a wide range of produce, that is available seasonally as it becomes ready in the gardens. We plant our gardens annually in the second week of May, and tend them carefully as the summer approaches. We also have a small greenhouse where we early start and transplant some of our seedlings.
Our gardens are irrigated from water that is diverted from the Kootenay River. We spend a LOT of time weeding and tending to the plants to ensure the best quality & quantity of produce. Our veggie stand usually opens in the 3rd week of July, with our sweet corn usually ready in the middle to 3rd week of August. As the growing season slows we ramp up our pumpkin display in October, where we sell pumpkins, potatoes, carrots, squash and other various produce until October 31.
ANNUAL PUMPKIN DISPLAY
We set up an annual pumpkin display where you are welcome to bring your family for fun, pictures and to pick out your very own pumpkin, all on the cash based honour system.
Our veggie stand runs entirely on the cash only self-serve honour system.
For your convenience we are open 7 days a week from sunrise to sunset (mid-July to October 31). We pick and stock the Veggie Shack with fresh produce daily.
