Week Four of our Okanagan Reconnect (OK Falls)

Presented by The Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association

The SHOW

 

Because…

Tasting Room Radio started its audio life in a studio in a barn on the Naramata Bench and…

Hadn’t been in the Okanagan since  Fall 2019 and

The pandemic kept us from returning.  I felt it was time to Reconnect to the Okanagan.
