Below you will see pictures of many of the fruits that were on display for the 2019 Fruit Festival. Pictures were taken on the Saturday. A little more fruit was brought in on Sunday but no pictures were taken, so a little bit of fruit is missing from this display.
Winter of 2018/2019 was quite harsh. It followed by a wet, cool, summer ( 2019). This was not favorable for cherries, apricots and plums. Fruit ripening in the local area was delayed by a couple weeks. Apples did best and hence the large representation of apples below. Very few cherries and plums for display this year, some pears ( most were still too unripe for our event).

Below you will see pictures of many of the fruits that were on display for the 2018 Fruit Festival. This is most of the fruit but not all of it. Maybe about 10-15% did not get photographed. But overall there were over 80 apples, 35 plums, 25 pears, 6 grapes, 2 cherries, 3 nuts and about 5 other berries on display and to sample. 

There were no apricots or haskaps on display as they ripen quite early and do no keep till mid September. This year there were no hardy kiwis on display (hairless, a little larger and longer than grapes).

Most of this fruit was grown within one and half hours drive from Edmonton, but a little bit came from as far as Chetwynd, BC ( 7 hours NW of Edmonton). Most of the fruit is grown in Zone 3-4. But some is grown in Zone 2 (Canadian).  This will give the viewer an idea of what can be grown in the Canadian Prairies.
