What Is A Farmers Market?

Farm to Fork Freshness Awaits

A farmers’ market connects you directly with local growers. At Don-O-Ray’s Kelowna stall, we harvest daily so you enjoy true seasonal freshness.

Ready to rediscover the flavour of truly fresh, seasonal produce? Welcome to Don-O-Ray Farms in Kelowna, BC—where every berry, bean, and beet is nurtured from seed to your table.

Why Supermarket Produce Falls Short
Most grocery-store fruits and veggies travel hundreds, even thousands of miles, spending days or weeks in transit. By the time they hit the shelves, much of their peak taste and nutrition have faded.

Your Concerns, Solved
You deserve to know when your food was picked and who grew it. At Don-O-Ray Farms, we harvest daily, so you can feel confident you’re serving your family produce that’s at its freshest and most flavourful.

Our Farm-Fresh Promise
We believe good food starts at the source. By connecting you directly with our farm, we protect the taste, health benefits, and community spirit that make fresh produce so special.

Join the Don-O-Ray family today and bring the harvest home vibrant, nutritious, and bursting with true seasonal goodness.

Our Farmers Market Standards

• Direct-from-the-farm sales
  Don‑O‑Ray Farms picks fruits, vegetables, herbs and even free‑range turkeys fresh daily and sells them straight from their property on Benvoulin Road in Kelowna. There’s no middleman: you’re buying exactly what they’ve harvested that morning
• Local & seasonal focus
  Their market runs June through December, so offerings shift with the seasons—from early‑summer cherries and haskap berries to autumn pumpkins and winter squashes—mirroring the ebb and flow you expect at farmers’ markets.
• Community hub & agritourism
  Beyond produce, Don‑O‑Ray invites families to the farm for ice cream, a petting zoo, hedge maze, and tours—turning a trip to buy vegetables into a full community experience, just as many markets host cooking demos, kids’ activities, and meet‑the‑farmer events
• Support for small‑scale agriculture
  As a family‑owned operation with over two decades in the Lower Mission area, Don‑O‑Ray keeps 100% of the sale value local. Their direct sales model sustains the farm and supports the broader Kelowna agriculture community.
• Artisan & value‑added offerings
  In true farmers’ market style, they’ve expanded into homemade hot sauces, pies, jams, soups, and ready‑to‑heat meals under their Nature’s Kitchen brand—demonstrating how markets often blend fresh produce with handcrafted, small‑batch foods
