BC Heritage Week
Join us on February 18 at 10:30am for a Recipe Exchange, inspired by the BC Heritage Week 2026 theme: Stir the Pot. Heritage Week is an annual event organized by Heritage BC, and runs this year from February 16-22.
Mingle with other guests, enjoy tea and cookies (which we’ll bake using a classic Mackie Lake House recipe from our archival collection). You can also check out some historical recipes and cookbooks from our archives and learn how we care for older books. Everyone will receive a copy of a treasured recipe shared by the other guests.
This event is FREE, but registration is required (and space is limited). Please email: info@mackiehouse.ca to register and to share your recipe with us.
