HistoryRutland was established when John "Hope" Rutland built an irrigation system allowing farming in the region. The post office was opened on October 1, 1908.[3] Rutland was an unincorporated town until it was merged with the nearby city of Kelowna in 1973[4] by an act of the provincial legislature. Rutland is named for an early settler, John "Hope" Matthew Rutland. Rutland, who had previously lived at Australian, near Quesnel, farmed wheat, planted the first commercial orchards, and installed the first large irrigation system in the area. In the 1900s he sold his land to a syndicate which subdivided the land and adjacent land and named the district after him.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{BCGNIS|22823|Rutland (community)}} 2. ^Kelowna City Sectors Map. 3. ^http://www.roadsidethoughts.com/bc/rutland-profile.htm 4. ^http://www.learnforestry.com/lessons/grade3/2007/timeline_kelowna.pdf External links{{commons category|Rutland, British Columbia}}
