Cranberry Bog Tours
This year’s cranberry harvest is looking as stunning as ever at Riverside Cranberry Farm. Registered guests can take in the beautiful valley views with a Harvest Walk. Stroll the perimeter of the field while it’s being actively harvested to see the harvesting machine working or to see the cranberries being pumped off the field. You can even put on a pair of farm waders for the Cranberry Plunge – an Instagram-worthy photo op. Visit the farm store to purchase farm to table products and fresh baked goods and beverages. Be sure to stock up on farm-fresh cranberries for your autumn meals and gatherings. The Fort Langley Cranberry Festival (October 12th) is the final day of the season to take in this experience.
