North Arm Farm: The Perfect Year-Round Family Farm Experience
Nestled against the backdrop of Mount Currie just a few minutes from Ancient Cedars Lodge, North Arm Farm is a family-owned farm that welcomes visitors with rural charm and is one of the few farms in the valley open year-round! One of the highlights of North Arm Farm is the opportunity to pick your own strawberries, immersing yourself in the joys of harvest.
Make sure to bring the kids to this farm. They will be thrilled to explore the farm's family-friendly play areas, with swings, wide open green spaces, playhouses and decommissioned tractors to “drive.”
Beyond the berry fields and play areas, North Arm Farm offers an authentic farm experience. You can interact with the resident chickens, sheep, and pigs and even have the chance to feed them. This hands-on experience is both educational and entertaining, providing a glimpse into the daily workings of a traditional farm.
What sets North Arm Farm apart is the stunning panoramic views of Mount Currie that serve as a backdrop to the entire farm. Whether you're strolling through the fields or enjoying a picnic, the majestic mountain scenery creates a serene atmosphere that adds to the overall charm of the experience.
The Beer Farmers: Craft Beer and Smash Burgers
For beer enthusiasts and foodies alike, The Beer Farmers is a destination that combines the best of both worlds: farm-fresh ingredients and handcrafted brews. This family-run farm and brewery are famous for its commitment to growing its own hops and barley to brew its beers, resulting in a unique and distinctive flavour profile.
Vibrant tulip fields will greet spring visitors to The Beer Farmers. In the summer, a sunflower maze offers an immersive experience where you can lose yourself amidst the golden blooms. And as autumn arrives, the farm transforms into a pumpkin paradise, inviting visitors to pick their own pumpkins and experience the true spirit of fall.
To complement their delectable beers, The Beer Farmers also operates Miller's Fries, a food truck that serves the best cheeseburgers and fries in town. Make sure to try the Poutine!
