The popular brewery located on Richter Street in Kelowna is the designated drop off point for the Central Okanagan Food Bank this weekend.

“During uncertain times likes these, our most vulnerable in the community are often overlooked and we wanted to help where we could.”
If you plan to drop into Vice and Virtue for a pint, the establishment encourages you to raid your pantry before you go.
The Central Okanagan Food Bank is looking for non-perishables such as:
- beans
