Dunvegan Market Gardens: A Fresh and Fun Destination in Northern Alberta
If you are looking for a place to enjoy nature, shop for local produce, and have some family fun, look no further than Dunvegan Market Gardens. Located only 26km south of the Town of Fairview and right next to Dunvegan Provincial Park just off Highway 2, this family-owned business has been serving the area since 1953. This beautifully landscaped location runs along the north shore of the mighty Peace River and is open spring through fall, offering locally made items, giftware and much more. Find a wide variety of bedding plants in the spring and later in the season bring the family and enjoy picking your own strawberries and raspberries. Through the summer, corn and other vegetables are also available fresh from the garden. As the long Peace country summer comes to an end, enjoy the beautiful fall colors of the river valley and find the perfect pumpkin here. After shopping in the garden centre get some refreshments at the onsite licensed restaurant serving mouth watering, locally produced bison burgers and much more. Satisfy your sweet tooth with one of the 16 flavors of ice cream available and complete your day in this beautiful area with a round of mini golf. Be sure to visit on the September long weekend, each year a corn roast is hosted at the gardens featuring fresh corn, an open air market and live music!
A visit to Dunvegan offers so much to do, be sure to come for the day, weekend or even a week. Dunvegan Gardens is a scenic riverside stroll away from the Dunvegan Provincial Park Campground, Historic Dunvegan and The Maples day use area. Beach fun, hikes with amazing views and photos of the Dunvegan bridge are also on the do not miss list for this very special location in the MD of Fairview.
