Getting excited for Thanksgiving in the Okanagan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Itâs time to dust off those casserole dishes and serving platters, folks, âcause the first of many indoor feasting celebrations is upon us. First up, Thanksgiving. Did you know that our Canadian Thanksgivingâs October timing reflects our countryâs earlier harvest cycle? In 1957, the Canadian government proclaimed Thanksgiving to be observed on the second Monday of October, making it a holiday closely tied to our climate and agricultural history. So then, think harvest meals celebrating
Easy Plum Cake to celebrate harvest (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cake never lets you down. Armed with a batch of Italian prune plums, from a neighbourâs garden, I needed a good old reliable recipe to transform my harvest bounty into something delicious.

Read excerpt
While doing next-day prep, chef Derek Ingram got the text to evacuate last Friday from his partner in Trout Creek. Rushing home from his Penticton-based food truck, CharCo, a few bags were hastily packed and they moved in with a few other families to a friend's BnB in the Wiltse neighbourhood. Char Company, a wood-fired sandwich shop housed in a sleek 26-foot custom-built trailer â parked between the Penticton Golf & Country Club and the Balcomo Hotel â opened a few short months ago.
