A favourite Duncan event makes a comeback! Now in its 149th year, the Cowichan Exhibition honours Cowichan Valley agriculture with its themes, which change each year. This year’s theme is “Bee Cause Bees Matter”, dedicated to the preservation and prevention of losing our country’s honey bee population, as well as honouring beekeepers and the honey-producing process.
