Olds College begins its centennial celebrations by launching a history book and coffee brand on Friday.

Founded in 1913 as the Olds College School of Agriculture and Home Economics, the college marks 100 years of service with the book Seeding Success by Saskatchewan historian Barry Potyondi. Proceeds from the book’s sale benefit the Centennial Entrepreneurial Legacy Fund.

The Centennial Coffee Project not only offers a blend unique to Olds College, proceeds will help the Dominican Republic Scholarship Fund, an effort to produce better coffee and farm revenues plus help children complete high school.

The event goes from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the college’s Learning Resources Centre.
