PLAN YOUR VISIT Mad Hatter Tea Tickets! Campground Reservations

We invite you to the Kilby Café to relax, and enjoy our soup and sandwich menu in our quaint home-style café, featuring 1900s music and a cozy atmosphere. The Kilby Café and Gift Shop are located in the Orientation Barn at the entrance to Kilby Historic site. Originally the Barn housed work horses until it was damaged by the 1948 flood. In 1987 it was reconstructed by the Agassiz-Harrison Lions Club, using the original design and techniques, and is now our orientation area. Your 1900s experience begins as you enter this orientation area, with friendly country hospitality and good old-fashioned cooking.

Vendor Applications

We are now accepting applications for our 2025 season!

We are looking for local vendors who create high-quality handcrafted items. The Kilby Historic Site’s gift shop operates on a consignment model with 30% of sales going to the Kilby Historic Site and the remaining 70% going to the vendor. In terms of traffic, we usually welcome 10,000 visitors to the historic site every year.

Vendors are offered a shelf for their goods (or several smaller shelves) and are in charge of supplying enough product to fill those shelves throughout the year. Shelving varies but options include a single shelf ~43″L x 10.5″W x 17″H or three stacked crates, each measuring ~18″L x 9.5″W x 11.5″H.

We charge a one-time $25 fee to cover shelf rental for the entire 2025 season (roughly April 17^th-December 14^th though dates may be subject to change). If interested, please fill out our Vendor Application and send the completed form to info@kilby.ca

					Hidden little Gem! This place was a hidden gem and our second time stopping here with our family. Cost to get in for a family was very affordable at $30 for myself and 5 kids. They have a cute little restaurant where you can eat inside or out in the garden. We packed a lunch and had a picnic on sight. The grounds have beautiful flowers with lots of grassy areas or benches for picnics. They have farm animals that you can buy little bags of feed that cost $1. The kids got to participate in tin piercing and have tea while one of the interpreters explained the history. We got into the main building which is the general store/hotel and the kids got to explore and ask questions and the very sweet lady behind the counter showed the kids all of the vintage toys and how they worked and they even got to try them out! When we were finished we went back through the gift shop and got a couple of treats for the kids. They also have an assortment of ice cream as well.

Lunch was very good with Homemade soups, salads and very fresh sandwiches. Well worth a visit when in the area

					A unique experience close to the big city. This hidden gem is a must visit in the upper Fraser Valley. It is like stepping back in time to the early part of the last century. The staff are very dedicated and knowledgable in the history of the site and area. Allow a couple of hours to properly take it all in.

					Hidden gem The store and farm are lovingly restored. There are a few farm animals, a gas pump and exhibition of old farm machinery. The little museum above the store has information on Kilby’s history, Sasquash, historic clothing and much more. There was a little quiz and additional activities for children. The volunteers were very welcoming friendly.
