“Sweet as nectar”

Almost all B.C. nectarines are grown in the Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys.

About:

A ripe nectarine is similar to a peach, but without the fuzz. Nectarines are soft and flavourful, and a great source of vitamin A, vitamin C, fiber, and potassium.

Most Common Varieties:

  • Crimson Gold
  • Early Sungrand
  • Firebrite
  • Redgold

Did you know?

  • To speed up the ripening process, nectarines can be placed in a paper bag and stored at room temperature.
  • The bright orange-red colour of nectarines is due to its high beta-carotene content.
  • Ripe nectarines are handpicked from the trees to prevent bruising and damage.
