Every year, Nelson and the entire Kootenay Lake area says goodbye to summer and hello to the colder weather in a spectacular fashion.

Kootenay Lake region was renowned for its orchards in the late 19th and early 20th century. The farms have evolved to include wineries, vegetables and an array of fruit.

For generations, Kootenay locals have taken great care of the wonder that you see around you. We hope that you will help us continue to do so.
