British Columbia’s interior has clean, fresh water and intensely warm summers, ideal for growing fruit trees (apples, cherries). The Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland regions have some of the richest, most fertile soil in Canada, suited to berry production (blueberries, raspberries, cranberries). BC’s state-of-the-art greenhouses also produce high quality fruits and vegetables (tomatoes, mushrooms, bell peppers).* There are many family-owned fruit-packing companies across BC, such as Sandher Fruit Packers in Kelowna.
