I have visited Yellowpoint Farm several times now. If you are looking for a wonderful Farm experience this is the place! The animals are all beautiful & very well cared for. They roam in beautiful fields where the views are abundant. The owners are wonderful people who work very hard to ensure your experience is absolutely exceptional. I love this farm, it’s produce, and everything that they do. Yellowpoint Farm is a lovely pocket of paradise here on Vancouver Island. I will be taking all of our visitors here! Becca & Justin have helped me to grow my knowledge of Farming & have truly mentored me on Farm life. I am very grateful to have been able to visit the Farm in several capacities. A great farm run by a great family.

Join us for a cider and spirits tasting; savour farm to table cuisine in our eatery; fresh baked goods made from cider leaven in our bakery; discover our traditional cider and spirits methods on our tours; stroll the orchard while your kids search for the mystical faeries rumoured to live here; shop in our farm store for unique artisan wares; relax in our lounge with cocktails, cider and spirit flights, and appetizers for pairing; overnight in a yurt or book a wedding/event. Open daily. Visit our website for hours and special events, like Sunday pizza nights and Christmas at the farm!
Visited Merridale on a beautiful sunny day with my two teenagers in reluctant tow. We were all charmed by the place. The people working were welcoming and knowledgeable. The buildings of the cidery and distillery had a classic, rustic feel. The orchard was gorgeous and peaceful to stroll around. I enjoyed learning about the cider making process on the walking tour. More recently, Merridale has gone into making other spirits like brandy and gin and it was interesting to learn about this process too. For younger children they have a fairy hunt to keep them entertained. The little fairy spots were fun for us to find as well and added to the charm of Merridale. We had lunch at the eatery along with having a flight of ciders each. The teens enjoyed trying their non-alcoholic flight - the lavender was unique and refreshing. I had the new world flight and enjoyed them all. Loved that cider and the other spirits were incorporated into the food menu items! The pulled pork with cider slaw and pear brandy bbq sauce was delicious! It was a treat to sit on their open air patio and look at the orchards while we sipped our ciders and ate our meals. Would like to book an overnight stay sometime in the yurts. I had heard great things about their pizza nights and picnics so will definitely have to return!
