In todays impersonal, fast paced, quick-shipping world, it can seem near impossible to keep up with the retail giants that offer over night shipping and front door delivery. Clients are in a hurry and often seek out the most quick and simple solution to their problems. However, the shop local movement still resonates with people who want to feel connected with and support their local community.

As fire season quickly approaches, it's important to make sure we all take the right steps to protect ourselves and our community. We have witness and lived the devastation wildfires can leave in their wake. In an attempt to combat this, the City of Kelowna is bringing back the FireSmart Chipping Program to dispose of the flammable debris from your yard.
