Whatever’s on the table this Thanksgiving, there’s a c***r for that 🍎

Turkey, ham, prime rib or just here for the pie, we’ve paired a Merridale c***r with every classic long weekend dinner. Swipe to find yours.

Grab yours at our Cobble Hill farm store in the Cowichan Valley or your local private liquor store before Monday.

Meri & Dale had a big Harvest night. Now it’s your problem. 🍏

Our Fairy Walk fairies woke up with zero memory and a mess scattered across the orchard, and they need a crew of grown-ups to piece it all together.

Grab your people, solve five cheeky clues, and earn tasty rewards at our bar along the way.

It’s the adult scavenger hunt on Vancouver Island you didn’t know you needed, right here in the Cowichan Valley.

📍 Merridale C***ry & Distillery, Cobble Hill
October 9 to 11 | Start anytime between 1 and 4 PM | Strictly 19+

Book ahead through the link in bio or just show up.

Send this to the friend who’d lose the clues by clue two.

Ever seen 1,000 apples go through the Squeeze Box? 🍎

That’s what we call our press. Picture a giant accordion that crushes fresh-picked apples down to the juice that becomes Merridale c***r. And we only press once. First press, best juice, no squeezing out every last drop.

We’re opening the doors on the mornings of Thursday, October 8 and Thursday, October 22 so you can come watch the press in action. Harvest is in full swing here in the Cowichan Valley, and this is your chance to see where every glass of our c***r begins.

Afterward, warm up in the Eatery with a bite or a c***r flight.

Day 1 was AMAZING! And here we are the second day of the Harvest for Hounds market ❤️🐶

Bring your dog and head to Merridale for a day of exploring the orchard, shopping our local makers market, and getting a pic of you and your pup ($30- with proceeds going to support the Vancouver Island SPCA)!

Don’t forget to have a c***r tasting and bite to eat while you’re here!

Happy Sunday everyone ☀️

It’s here. Harvest for Hounds is happening today and tomorrow in the orchard, and your dog is very much on the guest list 🐾

Wander the Pup-Up Market for local makers and treats, grab a Barkuterie Bowl for your best friend, and sip a c***r in the courtyard while the leaves do their thing.

Every bit of it helps raise funds for the BC SPCA, so your Saturday plans are basically charity work.

Open 11am to 3pm, Saturday and Sunday, at the farm in Cobble Hill. Leash up and come say hi.

Send this to your market bestie.
