Join local guide, Lee McFadyen, to visit multiple organic farms at Cawston, in the Similkameen Valley, Organic Capitol of Canada. During this insightful trip you will receive an overview of organic methods and explore how conservation and farming can co-exist. Learn about how a chance seedling can become a major new apple; the developers of the Ambrosia apple will tell their story and take us to see the “mother” Ambrosia tree. Please bring your own lunch and drinking water as well as a small ground sheet to sit on (the soil may be wet).
