B&T Orchards: A Local Farmstand Bringing Fresh Produce to Lake Country

The story of B&T Orchards is one rooted in family, tradition, and a love for the land. Located in the heart of Lake Country, BC, the farmstand began in 2020 during the lockdown as a way to stay connected with the community and bring a little light during challenging times. What started as a simple idea quickly blossomed into something truly special. The overwhelming support from local residents has been nothing short of amazing, and seeing the joy their products bring continues to inspire the team every single day.

A Fifth-Generation Legacy

What makes B&T Orchards unique is its long-standing family history. As fifth-generation orchardists, the team continues a legacy that began when their family purchased the land in 1918. For decades, their produce was sold primarily to exporters, meaning the local community rarely had access to these high-quality fruits. Opening the farmstand changed that- offering fresh, farm-to-table produce directly to neighbours in the Okanagan.

Community Favorites: Apples, Pies, and More

Local favorites at B&T Orchards include Honeycrisp apples, grown on a large scale with care and dedication. These crisp, juicy apples are a hit with residents of Lake Country and the surrounding Okanagan Valley. Right behind them in popularity are the homemade pies, crafted fresh to order using fruit from their own trees. The farmstand has become a beloved destination for families seeking fresh, local produce and sweet treats alike.

Rooted in Values: Family, Community, Sustainability

B&T Orchards operates on values deeply rooted in family tradition, community, agriculture, and sustainability. The farm team prioritizes educating the next generation about where food comes from and sustainable farming practices. Family is at the heart of every decision, and every product reflects a commitment to transparency, trust, and farm-fresh quality.

Exciting New Additions This Year

2025 marks a milestone for B&T Orchards: for the first time, they’re offering their very own ground crops! Customers can now enjoy juicy melons, crisp zucchini, sweet corn, vine-ripened tomatoes, pickling cucumbers, festive pumpkins, and more. The debut of homegrown cherries has been a hit, and after three tough winters, their grapevines are thriving again - bringing back the beloved Coronation table grapes. The farmstand continues to grow each year, thanks to the support and encouragement from the Lake Country community.

For anyone seeking fresh, local, and high-quality produce, B&T Orchards is a shining example of tradition, hard work, and connection to the community.
