Stories of Local Flavour and Abundance

It is a perfect Okanagan afternoon in a sun-dappled garden, where friends gather under the shade of flowering trees, glasses of chilled rosé in hand, and laughter floating through the air. At the centre of it all sits a graze board that looks more like art than food—overflowing with vibrant colours, delicate textures, and flavours that beg to be savoured. This is the magic of Curated Kelowna, where the humble charcuterie board has been transformed into the ultimate way to celebrate togetherness.
What began as a fleeting trend has become a lifestyle essential. Weddings, corporate soirées, or cozy nights in with friends—Curated brings the wow factor every single time. Their spreads are never ordinary; instead, they are layered with intention. Think farm-picked produce, jewel-toned seasonal fruits, handcrafted dips, wild-fermented sourdough, and an array of vegan-friendly delights that showcase the best of the Okanagan. Each board tells a story of local flavour, often featuring collaborations with small businesses like Taste of the Okanagan for jams and The Sinful Slice for unforgettable bread.
It is not just food—it is an experience. Curated’s graze tables become living centrepieces, lush and abundant, perfectly paired with a crisp Riesling, a hoppy craft beer, or bubbles that sparkle in the late afternoon light. Birthdays, reunions, and anniversaries instantly feel elevated when guests are greeted by a board brimming with beauty and flavour in equal measure.
Convenience is also part of the charm. Their picnic boxes are made for lake days, wine tours, or spontaneous garden gatherings that stretch into golden hour. With every bite thoughtfully chosen, all that remains is to lay out a blanket, pour the wine, and indulge.
Curated has taken charcuterie far beyond a trend—it is the Okanagan’s signature way to gather, graze, and create lasting memories.
