Join us in commemorating Heritage Week

February 20th-26th, 2023

Established in 1872, Ruckle Heritage Farm is the oldest operating family farm in the southern Gulf Islands, making it the perfect place to celebrate agricultural history during Heritage Week.

While farm tours are offered year-round, lamb feeding tours are only offered seasonally. For Heritage Week we will be offering ten percent of the proceeds to the Salt Spring Abattoir, helping to keep heritage farming alive on the island.

Baby Lamb Farm Tour

The tour will begin with a walk down the farm’s picturesque laneway leading you to one of the farm’s historic barns, all while hearing about the farm’s rich history and viewing the animals grazing on the pasture. At the barn you’ll be able to see the baby lambs and possibly even get a chance to bottle-feed a few of them. Adorable photo-ops await!

$110+ tax for up to four people. $20+ tax for each additional guest

The tour is approximately one hour.

Tour will happen rain or shine so please dress appropriately. Rubber boots recommended.

Book in advance as space is limited due to animal feeding schedules. Please email abey@ruckleheritagefarm.com or call 250-526-0096 for our full tour schedule.
