Sip local craft wines at Spirit Hills Flower Winery & enjoy local food.About this EventFoothills Winery & Storytelling EscapeEscape the city and step into the quiet rhythm of Alberta’s Foothills, where the landscape itself feels like a story waiting to be told. This curated day experience blends scenic travel, handcrafted flower wines, and a guided narrative that connects you to the land, the makers, and the meaning behind the journey.Begin your escape at Saskatoon Farm — a prairie landmark where tortoises wander between garden paths, chickens roam freely, and the foothills stretch out beyond the orchards. We pause here for their iconic scones and a moment of stillness, setting the tone for a day built around slow discovery and local stories.From the farm, the road carries us into Diamond Valley, a charming foothills town shaped by coal history, ranching culture, and a tight‑knit creative community. You’ll have time to explore the boutiques, grab lunch, and feel the human-scale warmth that makes this town a quiet Alberta gem.At Spirit Hills Flower Winery, you’ll taste award‑winning craft wines made from local blossoms and honey — each bottle rooted in the foothills’ ecology and the family’s own generational story. Between pours, you’ll hear the origin tales, the challenges, and the small triumphs that shaped this unique Alberta winery.Throughout the day, we weave a slow, reflective arc: leaving the city’s pace behind, settling into the foothills’ calm, and returning with a sense of having stepped briefly into another way of living. It’s not just a tasting — it’s a narrative escape designed for people who want experiences with depth, texture, and a touch of wonder.Agenda?: 10:00 AM - 10:30 AMArrival & Gentle Start from Inglewood Bird SanctuaryInfo: Arrival, check-in, and gentle start at Inglewood Bird Sanctuary.
