Frequently asked questions


Peaches? In Manitoba?

Yes! This started as a passion project in 2015 and has grown to include five different varieties of peach trees, nectarines, warmer climate plums, apples, pears, fuzzy kiwi, and more varieties!

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.

For the 2026 growing year, the majority of peaches are Redhaven. We also will have a limited number of Canadian Harmony. We have planted more trees of different varieties this spring and hope to have their fruit available in the coming years.
