Orchard Tasting Box

Note: For 2026, we will be offering our Fruit Tasting Boxes on a first come, first served basis for attendees of our Thanksgiving Fruit Tasting Open House here at the Nursery.

We may offer additional boxes at a later date, so please check back!

Sample your way through 15 unique varieties of apples, pears and various other fruits, all of which are grown organically in our test orchards, and none of which you would find at the grocery store!

We will focus each box on what is ripe, abundant, and uncommon, that you might explore the wilder side of the harvest! As ripening dates vary from year to year, we cannot offer a predetermined list of what will be in each box, but we do hope to include the likes of sea buckthorn berries, pawpaw, blackberries, plums, sunchokes, various nuts, fresh raw honeycomb and more as the harvest provides.

Boxes must be ordered at least 3 days ahead of the pick-up date so we can be organized, and availability is limited so get your order in ASAP!

Early September: TBD
Late September: TBD
Mid October: TBD

Each box will be a different surprise, bursting with a variety of flavours, smells, textures and colours. Just a reminder we manage the orchard in ‘minimalist organic’ method, and some of our fruit may have some minor pest damage.

Included will be a little pamphlet on the orchard and our farm, and suggested food pairings for your tasting.

Shipping vs. Pick up: Orders will be available for pick up on the Saturday dates listed during store hours. Additional fruit may be for sale on these dates at the nursery as available. Orders requiring shipping will be shipped the following Monday to pick-up date. Shipping fees are calculated per order, therefore if more than one box is on an order but shipping on seperate dates, additional fees may apply prior to shipment. We will contact you within a few days of placing the order if this may be the case.
