Date:<\/strong>\u00a0Saturday & Sunday Oct 19th, 20th, 2013
\nTime: <\/strong>11am-4pm
\nLocation:<\/strong>\u00a0UBC Farm<\/p>\n

A family event for all ages, the UBC Apple Festival celebrates one of British Columbia’s favourite fruits. From children learning about the diversity of apples to those who remember tasting heritage apples in their youth, the Apple Festival is a great opportunity to not only discover more about this delicious fruit, but have a whole lot of fun doing it!<\/p>\n

Apple and Apple Tree Cultivars for Sale<\/h3>\n

Every year, around 44,000 lbs (20,000 kilos) of apples are sold to thousands of hungry attendees. More than 70 varieties of heritage, new and “tried and true” varieties are available, grown both conventionally and organically. These include the heritage apples ‘Grimes Golden’ \u2018Bramley’s Seedling\u2019, \u2018Cox\u2019s Orange Pippin\u2019 and many others and also new varieties like the very popular \u2018Ambrosia\u2019 which was hybridized in Cawston, British Columbia, will be available.\u00a0The Apple Festival will have limited quantities of the newly registered Okana apple.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Also for sale will be many varieties of apple trees grafted onto dwarfing root stock, perfect for the home garden or patio.<\/p>\n

Apple Tasting Tent<\/h3>\n

One of the most popular activities at the Apple Festival is our apple tasting tent. For only $5.00, curious event goers can taste up to 60 varieties of new and heritage apples grown in British Columbia. For those looking to learn more, the history and specific features of those varieties can be found in the Friends of the Garden’s “published in-house” Apple Booklet, available for purchase at the event.<\/p>\n

Displays and Demonstrations<\/h3>\n

Also at the event is The Vancouver Island-based\u00a0BC Fruit Testers Association<\/a>\u00a0who host a physical display of the nearly 200 apple varieties that are still grown in British Columbia. Members of the association are also on-hand to give demonstrations of grafting and cider-pressing. Try to stump them with apple varieties from your garden, as they are experts at identifying apples (hint: bring along six apples from your unidentified tree).<\/p>\n

Nearby, Master Gardeners discuss apple-related diseases and pest management for those seeking problem-solving advice. At any time of the year, don\u2019t forget you can visit UBC Botanical Garden’s online\u00a0Fruit Trees discussion forum<\/a>\u00a0for more help!<\/p>\n

Entertainment & Children’s Area<\/h3>\n

Another feature at Apple Fest is our Children’s Area, with activity stations ranging from face painting and games to storytelling and puppet shows. This is a great place to spend some fun time with your children (children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times).<\/p>\n

There will also be a variety of talented entertainers to keep the family amused including family-friendly shows on the Main stage. Look for signs up around the festival with the entertainment schedule posted or check it out ahead of time below.<\/p>\n

And don\u2019t forget to take a break to enjoy some of the festival\u2019s selection of tasty edibles such as apple pie and hot apple cider available for purchase at The Food Fair located on the main lawn near the Apple Tasting Tent.<\/p>\n

While the Food Fair showcases tasty treats, the\u00a0Shop in the Garden<\/a>\u00a0features an exciting array not only of apple-related merchandise but also tools, books and gifts. Our Garden Centre has a variety of fruit trees and hundreds of plants for your garden. Craft vendors, UBC Herbarium merchandise and UBC Farm produce are also available throughout the garden.<\/p>\n
