Bring your family to Merridale for a Sunday afternoon of festive storytelling and holiday celebration. Author, Roger Brunt, will read his latest children?s book, Salt Spring Island's Erskine the Elf Goes Home. Roger is well-known as the Fairy Door Man of Salt Spring Island and his books for children feature the adventures of the elves and faeries who live in our orchards and forests. Make a cozy evening of it with the Orchard Light Up. Kids get a free cookie and an adventure through our orchard as they follow the lights and candy canes on a search for faeries. Enjoy dinner in our bistro from 5-8pm with a special kids menu and, of course, Yule Fuel for adults. The story reading and Orchard Light Up is free, additional costs apply for beverages and meals in the bistro. Make your reservation today at 250-743-4293 or info@merridalecider.com.
