Farmstrong Cider Company
location_onArmstrong, Shuswap
Farmstrong Cider Company turns a working Armstrong farm, with roots dating back to 1896, into one of the North Okanagan's most inviting cider destinations. This is a family-run operation that pairs small-batch craft cider with genuine farm-to-table hospitality, all set inside a beautifully restored heritage barn surrounded by rolling BC countryside. The sense of place is a big part of the draw: you are drinking cider where the farm story is right outside the door.
The cider lineup spans the full spectrum, from dry and crisp to sweet and refreshing, with distinctive small-batch offerings like Black Currant, Extra Dry and Cherry showing off what local fruit can do. Tastings are served flight-style, typically four five-ounce pours lined up like a paddle, so you can work across the range and find your favourite before committing to a full glass. It is an approachable, low-pressure way to taste, whether you are a cider newcomer or a seasoned fan.
The experience goes well beyond the glass. The heritage barn houses a farm-to-table restaurant, and the outdoor patio looks out over the surrounding countryside, making it a lovely spot to linger over a meal. Food ranges from snacks and charcuterie boards to fuller plates, and the calendar regularly features live music, tours and seasonal events that turn a quick stop into an afternoon.
Located at 4300 Maw Road just outside Armstrong, Farmstrong is an easy add to any North Okanagan or Shuswap touring route. If you are after craft cider with real farm character, good food and a relaxed patio with a view, this family-run barn makes for a standout stop. Come hungry, settle in, and let the countryside do the rest.
