What my clients say

2025 Enderby Halloween event The event was amazing. people couldn't stop saying how wonderful it was and how Enderby is the place to be for these events. I also wanted to tell you just how fantastic I thought it was. Your team did an amazing job. As a business and community member please say thank you to everyone. I was keeping track of the kids that came in for treats and I had to quit counting at around 673 as they needed me in the kitchen. We had to go grab more candy 4 times. LOL From the amount of candy we gave out I would say we were around 850 kids plus. That is an estimate based on the fact that we gave out the last of the 200 more candy bars that were given out. Although I do believe the staff ate some. haha

Valerie brings so much of herself to everything she does. I've worked with her at the Enderby Farmers Market and the Good Food Box of the North Okanagan. She's your sister - the one you like - your daughter, your neighbour - again your favourite one. Enderby is very lucky to have her in our midst.

I have known and worked with Vallerie through the Enderby Farmer’s Market for the past two years. Vallerie is a strong organizer and communicator which has made the markets run smoothly each year. This year she mobilized a team to assist the markets and has brought in new creative ideas to encourage community involvement in the markets. She has been an asset to our community and I look forward to what she brings to our community in the future.
