Harvest season is well underway in Kamloops and the Okanagan, and hardworking gardeners are enjoying the fruits of their labour bringing in a wide variety of tasty fruits and vegetables.

Kamloops gardener Aramat Nesnitram grew a tomato weighing 1.3 pounds. “I’ve been gardening pretty much my whole life starting with my grandma growing potatoes,” she said. “It’s absolutely the largest tomato I’ve ever grown.” Nesnitram already ate the tomato but is keeping its seeds to plant next spring.
