    Hey Guys,

    By way of introduction, my name is Chris and I am the new Director of Sales for Okanagan Pellets! I just wanted to hop on here to introduce myself and help answer any questions you may have regarding the Okanagan brand. I know there has been some confusion regarding the Okanagan brand over the past several months. I will help to clarify some of this confusion.

    As a resident of NH and a faithful pellet stove user, I understand the importance and value of quality wood pellet fuel. And I’m very excited to represent one of the industry’s best brands!

    I plan to be extremely busy in the next couple months organizing special events for Okanagan customers where I hope to meet some of you personally. I’ll post updates to this forum as the schedule gets finalized.

    If you have any questions or would like to try Okanagan pellets, feel free to reach out to me directly at [email protected]

    I look forward to participating in this very helpful forum community!

    Hey Chris, welcome. Keep us in the loop on those event details, that sounds interesting. Do you have any info on the Okanagan Golds? ETA on availability and what specific product will be in those bags?

    Chris, which retail stores will be selling Okanagan pellets for the next heating season? The only local store we are aware of at this time is Royal Fireside over in Mendon, are there any others in this area? By this area, I mean Eastern CT, Central MA, or RI? I'm sure others on this forum will be interested for their areas as well... Also, curious if the Okanagan brand will be sold on wood pellets dot com or will that store front continue to be reserved for CleanFire, LG, and MC?
