Singletree Winery invites the community for its first annual Mt. Lehman Community Social, a free event for the community to connect, socialize, and come together as one. Bring a favourite dish to share at a potluck, family-style feast, with the Mt. Lehman Community Association sponsoring live music from the Prairie Dance Club.
New vintages of Singletree wine will be available for purchase by the glass or by the bottle, alongside craft beer on tap from a local brewery, and other non-alcoholic beverages.
Laura Preckel of Singletree says, “We want to bring old neighbours and new friends together. We’re inviting the Mt. Lehman community, their friends and family to bring a dish and to raise a glass with us. It’s about giving back to our community through sharing. And what a better way to do that than with a glass of wine?”
