Delicious ideas from the Okanagan

If you recognize this photo, you've probably spent time in B.C.'s gorgeous Okanagan.

So you'll know why it's called our province's Fruit Basket. And here's a simply tasty way to enjoy your favorite Okanagan fruit.

It really is painless: just take your selection of the Okanagan's finest, accompanied by your own homemade syrup, a dash of mint and vanilla ice cream. In fact, it's such a simple and popular recipe, that our own local experts at Granville Island feature it on their website. Check it here.

Ripening schedule: when we went up a few weeks ago, the cherry harvet was in full swing. Peaches and apricots are ready to go about now, with pears, plums and apples just around the corner.

Enjoy!
