Creston
Creston (population: 4,826) lies in a wide, flat valley in the heart of the Selkirk Mountains. An agricultural community, it produces organic produce and is second only to the Okanagan in fruit production. Visitors are encouraged to “Enjoy life, pure and simple” by, for example, attending an agriculture- or gardening-themed festival or communing with nature on a birding, hiking or golfing outing. The town also offers a rich array of arts and crafts items in its shops and galleries.
