  • Tuesday, April 28 
  • Thursday, April 30
  • Tuesday, May 5 
  • Thursday, May 7

RSVP now to attend the festival and get a behind-the-scenes look at the Battle River region through the eyes of its locals.

Invite your friends as well, just share this invite with them to get them dialed in. Then read on, to learn more about what's ahead.

As a preview to your virtual festival experience, local Alberta influencer Linda Hoang visited the Battle River region recently and came away awed at all the cool things happening there. 

In her journeys she met local makers and purveyors of chocolates and treats, farm fresh vegetables and perhaps the top highlight, baby goats!

Check out her Facebook video below, and then read her story to get primed for a Battle River adventure.

HIT PLAY > Linda joins Maple Park Farms in Beaver County to plant some seeds and learn about a multi-generation family farm and greenhouse operation where you'll find locally grown flowers and fresh veggies.
