The first AppleFest is taking place Saturday, Sept. 26 at the Ross Street Plaza from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Local orchard growers will be present and sampling this year’s crop. Vendors will be selling local dried apples, apple butter and apple baked goodies. Stop by the Shuswap Farm Market booth, the local nutritionist or bring in your unnamed apple varietal to be identified by experts.
There’s family fun all day. The Kids Zone is from 11 to 2 p.m. Activities and games, face-painting and children’s entertainer will put smiles on faces all day long.
Visit the merchants to discover their apple-themed goodies – like apple pies, juice and cider and apple-smoked cheddar.
