Love going through the valleys as harvesting begins. First the early fruits and then into veggies. Fall is always full of wonderful colours, and the vendors make a final resplendent display of their wares to celebrate before the cold weather comes and all stock get moved indoors.

Mariposa welcome sign
This billboard sized sign greets you as you enter the town of Keremeos and pass the Mariposa fruit stand.

Here's the left half of the display that greets you........

and here's the right half - well, most of it all. It gives you a good idea of how big it is anyway. There's much more around the front and the far side as well.

All kinds of weird and wonderful gourds for decoration.

More gourds and squash.

Always awesome to see. Makes me realize how lucky I am to be living in this area, with such a bounty of food to enjoy. (and yes, I stocked up for winter!)
