Bloom is sweeping across vineyards in Kelowna, keeping our viticulture and winemaking teams on the edge of their seats as the delicate flowering stage coincides with a sometimes temperamental late Spring/early Summer weather.

Kelowna has something for everyone this coming Canada Day long weekend. Whether you want to swim in the lake, dine in the vineyards, take in a festival, listen to live music, explore and learn with your family, or all of the above... the event selection this year will have you wearing red and white to show your Canadian pride. 

Most locals that grew up in the valley can remember those carefree summer days, once school was out and the fruits became ripe on the neighbourhood trees. Well, that time of year is back!

Head into downtown Kelowna for a self-guided, walking tour of award winning wineries, breweries, distilleries, and a cidery that call the downtown urban core home.

Like so many people that I know, I LOVE shoes. Whether you are looking for style, comfort, durability or just because; these Kelowna shoe stores will have you screaming "get on my feet!" ;)

Summer in the city: Kelowna's downtown is right on the lake and has lots of hot spots to chill out.

Impress your friends with these tasty summer cocktails made with local spirits, ciders, and farm fresh rhubarb.

We recently participated in the Regional District of the Central Okanagan (RDCO)’s “Go Fish” family event and had such a blast!
