Pure Life Paddle Boards is coming to Earth Day Fraser Valley!

Posted in Vendors, tagged , , , , , on April 19, 2013 | Leave a Comment »

ImagePure Life Paddle Boards will be joining us at Earth Day! 

With lives becoming more fast paced and it becoming increasingly difficult to disconnect ourselves from work, stand-up paddle boarding is the answer. As one of the fastest growing sports in the world, paddle boarding allows for you to step onto the water and reconnect with family, friends and the environment itself.

It’s more than a sport or an activity. It’s a lifestyle….

Pure Life Paddle Boards wants to do everything it can to help ensure the aquatic environments we enjoy so much are properly taken care of. For this reason we have committed to donating a percentage of all sales to local environmental organizations like the Living Oceans Society and the David Suzuki Foundation. 

Discover pura vida and experience the pure life! I love Paddle boards they are so much fun , and better yet they are in our Valley!!

Welcome to Smits & Co.w!

Smits & Co.w is a small family owned and operated farm and cheese making business. They take the milk from a mixed herd of Holstein and Brown Swiss cows and use a traditional method to produce an excellent gouda style cheese. We love this place, we get to meet the farmers and They do not use preservatives or colouring in their cheeses!

Their selection includes mild, medium and aged plain as well as flavours such as cracked black pepper, onion, onion & garlic, cumin, fenugreek, stinging nettle, chilli pepper, Italian and Greek spiced. And always creating new incredible flavours!

Come visit their unique little store on the farm and enjoy old fashioned hospitality, maybe even listen to someone playing the piano!

They are open Thursday, Friday and Saturdays 9am-5pm. 

We also carry a selection of original Dutch foods and some other products to compliment cheese.

For your special occasions we will be happy to make a beautiful gift basket or cheese platter. Below is a basket options:

*Contents of basket may vary

Cheese platter – prices depend on weight and type of cheese chosen. Please contact us for retail and wholesale orders.

We absolutely love Smits and Cow and are so happy they are coming to Earth Day Fraser Valley 2013, this is a booth you will want to make sure you swing by and grab some amazing cheese, and later on visit their cute farm shop buy some eggs, cheese and pork!
