What these findings mean
Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk
Hands are the main way germs like norovirus move from people to food. Inspectors look for stocked, accessible handwashing sinks, staff washing hands when required, hair restraints, and sick employees being kept away from food. Gaps here can spread illness quickly.
Recorded once on May 6, 2026. For example:
5 Has the operator taken steps to ensure employees are using adequate hygiene measures to prevent contamination of food?
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded once on August 22, 2022. For example:
1 Does the facility have proper monitoring supplies?

Great stop for entertaining kids. They have a big playground and a feeding area with sheep and goats. It's really interesting and interactive. There are various games that you can play on-site as well. It's definitely worth a visit. We didn't do the tour, but I believe it would be fun because we saw tractors with wagons parked on the side. They have a lot of products with apricots and cherries, strawberries, and apples. They were amazing, some of the best we had. Also, the ice cream with fresh fruit mixed in was a superstar. So, an absolute shout-out if you're around the Vernon area and want to spend some time with kids. You can easily spend two hours there with kids having a lot of fun and not wanting to go home.

Love this place- always been a goto for a great family friendly experience. Great shopping, produce, the cafe is awesome and the joy we all have walking around with an ice cream or applanche and seeing the animals brightens our day. Great local baking and soups! I do wish that they would have a bit more reusable items, recycling and compostables in the cafe. Thankful for the gift of Davisons!

Perfect experience with my 3 years old boy. Beautiful weather, wide, lots of activities in nature play ground. Farm animals, sand box with big toy trucks, stacked hay for climbing or hiding spots for kids. Tractors for orchards tour only for friday to sunday. But my son still likes to see n ride it where it was parked. Fresh homemade ice cream, jam, fruit butter. I love it so much. Lots of things to buy and look around in the shop. I really enjoyed a lot.

This place is a good place to spend with your young family. Lots of goats, sheep’s, donkey, cats, fun place to run around, a play area, souvenir shop, yet the vegetables and fruits 🍎 seemed overpriced. We tried their real fruit ice cream and ended up wasting most of it. Not so good and they felt much flavourless. The place itself is so good but things are overpriced. The train ride we had to miss as it was extremely windy and might try next time.

What an experience! We visited this farm, it was FREE and we had a blast. There's so many things to explore, animals to feed, play places for kiddos and much much more! They got gift shops, souvenirs and much more! Keep in mind this farm has free tours from May 1st until June 8th ONLY. Grabbed Double Grill Chesse Sandwich and Walnut Carrot Cake was a delight! Cant wait to come here again 😁😁
