Sun Valley Farms

About this farm

At 1186 Highway 8 in Winona, Sun Valley Farms operates as a family-run fruit farm with a cherry orchard and market. The farm is now in its third and fourth generation of operation.

What the farm offers

Pick-your-own cherries takes place in an orchard planted with full-dwarf cherry trees, so the fruit is easy to reach and suitable for pickers of all ages. The farm market offers local fresh seasonal produce, including farm-picked fruits and vegetables and locally made goods, along with homemade sourdough bread, fruit pies and baked goods.

Practical visit details

The cherry-picking area supplies baskets; outside containers, bowls, coolers and bags are not permitted in the orchards. There is no separate admission fee, but a basket purchase is required. Children under 10 may enter free with an accompanying adult. Pets may be brought at the owner's risk, but must be leashed and cleaned up after. Free on-site parking is first come, first served, and public washrooms are available. Cash and debit are accepted; credit cards are not.

Plan your cherries visit

Ask the farm before booking your day out:

• Which cherry varieties are open and what picking method is required?
• Are ladders supplied, or are visitors expected to stay at ground level?
• Can the farm accommodate the group size and date you have in mind?
