The Okanagan College Alumni Association offers you the chance to purchase wine and cider from local businesses. Partial proceeds from the sale of the cider and wine through the alumni office will help support programming for graduates, convocation, bursaries and student events and activities.

To order, please complete the form below by Wednesday, March 6. Be sure to identify the desired varietal(s) and quantities. Your order will be reviewed, taxes calculated and an invoice will be created. Once you receive the invoice, contact the winery with a credit card to complete your purchase. Your purchases will be available for pick up at Central Stores on the Kelowna campus. 

We're always looking to partner with businesses in the region. Do you know a business that would be interested in taking part in the program? Please send a note to alumni@okanagan.bc.ca.

Cider 4-pack $14.00 Unusually Good is the cider with a story. Unusually Good takes the apples that farmers could not use in the market and combines them with Wards estate-grown bittersweet cider apples. The result is a medium-dry cider with hints of sweetness that provides a crisp, refreshing finish. Every can of Unusually Good Cider sold goes towards providing Unusually Good apple chip donations to schools and food banks across the Okanagan. Learn more about the OC Enactus project here.

Cider purchase includes a gift card for a complimentary tasting for four people and 10% discount on in-person purchases from the The View Winery.
