I recently visited the Yellow Point Cranberry Farm in Nanaimo BC. We were given a tour of the family run farm, learned how the berries are harvested, sorted, packaged and tasted samples of cranberry products in their cottage. It was a really fun experience. They told us about numerous events they put on where they offer hay rides, kids activities and extended farm tours. The cranberry cottage is open all year and they have a great selection of amazing cranberry jams, sauces, dressings, recipes and drinks. It was a fabulous experience and when they host their next event, I will definately take my nieces and nephews.
