Lot’s to taste and try on Saturday

Enjoy a complimentary taste with Winecrush & Kitchening and Co who will also be here. Come say hi and try Winecrush’s Sea Salt and Wine Powder between 12 pm and 4 pm. Kitchening and Co will be here between 11 am and 3 pm !

What is Winecrush Powder?
Winecrush is a concentrated source of grape skin and grape seed polyphenols. The deep purple Winecrush powder starts with organic pomace, or mushy pulp left over after the red wine grapes from the Okanagan valley have been crushed or wine making (and normally thrown out).
What makes their Sea Salt so Special?
Our Sea Salt is infused with Okanagan wine grapes which gives this salt its bold, aromatic flavors.
Sprinkle Malbec & Herb Sea Salt on grilled peppers & grilled corn to name a few. This salt also makes for a great finishing on, sauté mushrooms & onions. It’s also been highly recommended for a little added flavor in your popcorn.

Staff Highlight!
This week it’s all about Amanda! This busy lady has worked in both our deli bakery and with our customers as a cashier! She’s been with us almost 9 months now.
When we asked Amanda what her favourite part of her day is at Ralph’s she said, “interacting and visiting with customers. I enjoy finding out how their day is going and what they’re up to.”
Amanda’s favourite item here at our market is our Okanagan apples, “there’s just so many, it’s hard to choose a favourite! If I had to choose I’d say the honey crisp apples!”
Amanda looks forward to going back go school to become a teacher or maybe work in the film industry! She’s very creative and has a great eye for detail.
We appreciate you!
