Creston, Mountain town in Central Kootenay, Canada
The agricultural community of Creston spans across fertile valleys at 597 meters elevation, surrounded by mountains in British Columbia's Kootenay region.
The Canadian Pacific Railway's arrival in the early 1900s transformed Creston from a small settlement into an agricultural center for the Kootenay region.
The Creston Valley Blossom Festival brings together local farmers, artisans, and residents to celebrate the agricultural traditions of the region.
The Creston and District Community Complex provides residents with multiple sports facilities, including pools, an arena, and outdoor recreational spaces.
Creston operates on Mountain Standard Time while the surrounding communities in British Columbia follow Pacific Standard Time.
