Details

Yes! Summer is around the corner and so is the VPPC’s Fall FeatherFest Show for 2026. Posters and info are coming soon, but the dates are October 17-18 at the Horticulture Building on the IPE grounds in Armstrong, BC. We’ve got plans cooking for the best show yet so count your birds, pick out the best, and get your forms in on time! Maybe we’ll see you in the winners ring this year?

Interested in helping out? Many hands make light work, or so the saying goes, and we can always use extra hands planning, setting up/tearing down, and just helping to get the word out and advertise the show. Commit as little or as much time as you’d like! Help is always welcomed as are new members!
