With the season drawing to a close, here are eight must-do experiences you should tick off your list before the summer comes to an end!
There's nothing quite like spending a morning wandering a local market, coffee in hand, discovering fresh produce, handmade goods, and local treats along the way. From Penticton to communities across the South Okanagan, local markets are a great way to support makers and experience the flavours and creativity that make the region so special.
