Frequently asked questions
Peaches? In Manitoba?
Yes! This started as a passion project in 2015 and has grown to include three different varieties of peach trees, warmer climate plums, apples, pears, fuzzy kiwi, and more varieties! Peaches, and soon nectarines make up the majority of the fruit on the farm.
Are these organic?
No.
Synthetic fertilizers are used. The orchard is hand weeded. Physical barriers and predator insects are used to combat insect pests.
Is this fruit available anywhere else?
No. We hope to offer more locations as the orchard continues to grow year over year.
Are you accepting advanced reservation orders?
Not yet. As the orchard continues to grow in size, we hope to be able to offer this in the future.
Is there a minimum quantity for buying?
No. Peaches can be purchased down to and including an individual peach. Please note that we have a limited variety of container types and container quantity available.
Do you have a maximum purchase quantity?
No, however please note we are a newer orchard and are still relatively small. As such, we don't have large quantities of peaches yet for sale. Quantities of peaches available will increase with each year as the trees continue to grow in size.
What peach varieties are for sale?
For the near term, the peaches available for purchase are Redhaven. We also have Canadian Harmony and Flamin' Fury, but these are still growing before we can offer their fruit for sale. We will be planting more varieties in 2026, and hope to offer these soon after too.
