Events this month in Lake Country include some culinary fun, some ‘Arrogant’ music at Creekside, and time spent on ice.

Do you have a sweet tooth?

Arrowleaf Cellars is having a Cream Puff Weekend starting the first weekend of March and running until Thanksgiving.

Housemade cream puffs will be available for $8 each every Saturday and Sunday, with rotating flavours. First-come, first-served, so get there early as they sell out quickly.

The winery is located at 1574 Camp Road in Lake Country.

If gummies are more your jam, Rose Hill Orchard & Bees To Berrys Farm is hosting an Elderberry Syrup & Gummies Workshop on March 18.

It’ll be hands-on, in-person workshop all about elderberries. Participants take home a 250ml bottle of syrup and a bag of gummies. The cost is $75. Here’s the eventbrite.
