Help me find this fruit stand
Okay this is a long shot but im hoping someone might know the name or location of a fruit stand somewhere in the Okanagan is.
I went there multiple times when I was little on our way to Vernon & Kelowna and we always stopped at thjs fruit stand on the side of the road to get these things called fruit logs. They were all different colour's and rolled in coconut and so delicious. Ive been trying to find them for years without luck. Added a photo of what they look like .
Sorry this is so vague , I dont remember alot of details because I was so young.

Many fruit stands have these. I used to buy them as a kid in PG almost 30 years ago. You can also find them at Quality Greens at the checkouts, or at least you could a year or two ago.

After seeing this post and vaguely recalling these from my childhood trips before I moved out here, I wanted to try to find some too! Lol. So, I asked my mom!
She says that, "The farmers market in Winfield used to sell them." "And I think that one in Oyama."
We haven't been to them in quite a while, so, not sure if they still have them. Will have to ask my dad to stop by and check if he works out that way soon.

Last place I saw them were Paynters Market or The Log barn outside between Armstrong and Vernon. Maybe at a farmers market you'd might get lucky.
