The Saskatoon Farm

The Saskatoon Farm in Foothills County offers U-pick berries, a market and dining, all in one welcoming countryside stop. More than 30 years ago, Paul and Karen Hamer planted saskatoon berry seedlings on their land at the confluence of the Sheep and Highwood rivers, 10.5 km (6.5 mi) northwest of Okotoks. The seedlings flourished and the family continued to put down roots, adding more plants and growing the farm into the attraction it is today. Visitors can browse the farmers’ market, bakery, boutique and garden centre, then settle in for a meal at the 100-seat restaurant. Open seasonally from March to late December, the farm also hosts special events and is available for weddings.
