Covert Farms Family Estate offers the ultimate family-friendly experience, where parents can enjoy wine on their patio while the kids are entertained with yard games. You have the option to upgrade and book a Mini-Farm Tou, which is highly recommended.
Getting to the Farm
Located 35 minutes from Penticton, you will drive past Jackson Triggs Winery before turning right onto Seacrest Hill Road. You will continue on Seacrest Hill Road for 2.1 kilometers before turning right on Covert Place road. Plenty of large signs guide you to Covert Farms, with the large wooden arches welcoming you to their beautiful winery.
Mini Farm Tour for Kids
Book their mini walking tour to meet heritage chickens, ducks, sheep, lambs, goats, llamas, and pigs.
This 20-minute tour is hands-on and children will have the opportunity to feed some of the animals while learning more about the farm.
Tasting Experiences
At the end of the tour, the kids will wash their hands before joining their parents in their open-air log barn. Please note that children under four years must be accompanied by an adult on the tour.
As part of the kid’s tour and tasting, children will receive artisanal cheese and crackers while the adults can book a private picnic which includes a bottle of wine (per two guests) and a platter of local charcuteries, artisanal cheese, and seasonal vegetables all from their farm.
Yard Games, Jumbo Jumper & Slip n’ Slide
The biggest attraction for kids is the large grassy area filled with yard games, a jumbo jumper, and slip n’ slide. This area is a dream for parents who want to relax while watching their kids play nearby.
As much as our girls loved the farm tour, they couldn’t wait to explore the grounds and play all the games and activities available.
