2013 Summer Harvest

Blush Lane  is THE place to find fresh, ripe farm-direct organic produce. Direct from our own orchard and the local organic community, enjoy an exceptional variety of BC and Alberta organic produce this summer. Every type of fruit has several varieties that ripen at different times, so there is a range of dates for each, listed in order of harvest.
