Unusually Good
Making change, one apple at a time!
We work with Okanagan farmers to rescue unwanted apples and transformed them into delicious, shelf-stable apple chips. Through a partnership with the North Okanagan Valley Gleaners, a not-for-profit food processor group dedicated to alleviating hunger, we created an innovative way to dehydrate the rescued apples and convert them into nutritious snacks that were delivered to local schools, food banks, and developing countries such as Ukraine, Guatemala, Armenia, and North Korea.
We then turned our attention to a second product, apple juice! We started producing a high-quality juice with an extended shelf life using unwanted apples.

Revive
Revive provides businesses with new strength and energy for modern, dynamic work environments
Revive is a comprehensive, for-purchase curriculum, offering engaging lessons on wind, water, solar, and geothermal energy. Most middle school teachers are overworked and are given a limited budget, Revive provides a cost effective option for exciting education.
Participants explore these topics through interactive activities like creating light-up cards and designing house wiring diagrams that respond to their configurations with lights, sound, and movement.
This dynamic approach makes learning about renewable energy both informative and entertaining.
Revive aims to instill a lasting appreciation for sustainable practices by blending education with hands-on, enjoyable experiences. The Idea of Revive was formed at the beginning of 2023, and since then we have taken it from a simple proposal to the comprehensive program it is today.
Within the last 5 months we have also forged partnerships with a Kelowna middle school and peaked the interest of the Womens in Trades program at Okanagan College.
These partnerships will assist Enactus Okanagan College and our Revive initiative make an even bigger positive impact on our community.
