Unaffordable rents and out-of-reach home ownership led local realtors to pick a perfect cause to support at a recent pumpkin patch fundraiser.

Re/Max Vernon Salt Fowler held its 15th annual Pumpkin Patch Day at the popular St. Annes Road patch on Oct. 6.

In addition to providing hot dogs, hot chocolate and coffee, treats for the kids, face painting and coupons for free pumpkins, the real estate team provided hope for those struggling to afford North Okanagan rents by raising $1,740 in matched donations for the Okanagan Village Housing Society.
