Back To Our Roots Celebration for Canada’s 150th
Twenty – eight member wineries of the Naramata Bench Wineries Association are prepping for their annual “let our hair down, pop some corks and celebrate harvest event” on September 9. This is a wine and food event for wine enthusiasts to plan an Okanagan Fall weekend around. The event will be hosted this year D’Angelo Estate Winery (www.dangelowinery.com) from 6:30 to 9 PM.

Tap into your creativity, if you dare, because prizes will be awarded for the most creative gumboots.
