We stumbled upon Davison Orchards, last Thanksgiving. Â We had five kids in tow requiring entertainment between a wedding and a reception. Â Pumpkins? Â Pie? Â Apples with Caramel Sauce? Â The Crazy Cow Kids Coral? Â We were sold.
Once we arrived, we were entrenched in Thanksgiving for the incredible harvest stretched before our eyes. Â We wandered through the “village”, past the bakery and all the lovely displays. Â There were bin after bin of seasonal veggies and fruit, cascading with a rainbow of colours! Â It was wonderful! + READ MORE

Kamloops Dairy Delivery presents a fabulously fun (or spooky) Halloween Craft and Contest!![]()
Create your own!!
My family had lots of fun creating ghosts and pumpkins with our recyclables. Â We washed them out and let them dry (without labels). Â Then we watered down some glue and cut up tissue paper into squares.
We all pasted the squares onto our milk jugs as we liked and then created the faces we wanted. Â Once they were ready, Mom cut a hole through both sides of the jug and strung a string of Christmas lights through!
Et voila! Â Spooky or fun?
Now, the challenge is yours!!
Take your milk jug and create whatever Halloween-themed creation your heart desires.  Then, snap a photo and send it to elizabeth@kamloopsparents.com (or share it on our facebook page). You have until October 23rd to get your entries in. On October 25th the images will be put into a gallery and we will have a contest to see which creation wins the most votes. We will hold the contest open for votes until October 28th when we will announce our winner!
The winning creation will get  a $20 punch card from Kamloops Dairy Delivery and a couple of fresh bakery treats of the winner’s choice – delivered with their first order!
So, what are you waiting for… go drink some milk and get craftin’!! I can’t wait to see what you create.

In 2006, I had one child. Â He was 18 months old. Â We wanted to start family traditions and make lasting memories and had just learned about Pete Murray’s Corn Farm.
In the fall, they offer wagon rides, feeding the sheep and u-pick pumpkin patch trips, all for only $5!
