Farmers Face Total Loss from Wildfire | Vancouver News
Description
A Summerland farmer, just 12 hours from harvesting his entire peach crop, faces total loss after a wildfire and windstorm obliterated 70-80% of his trees—leaving rotting fruit and shattered livelihoods. This isn’t the first disaster for Okanagan farmers: heat domes, brutal cold snaps, and even a major cooperative shutdown have become grim realities. With decades of work erased, he’s scrambling to salvage what’s left while pleading with provincial leaders for aid. As the Mayor urges the Premier to act, this story exposes how climate chaos is forcing rural communities to rebuild from scratch—again and again.
