Confirming Organic Blueberry Orders

To everyone who ordered blueberries, we have received your requests and
are submitting the order to our pal Ivan on Monday.

Thanks so much for your important part in strengthening our local food
systems and supporting regenerative agriculture.

We will get a tentative date that we can pick up the blueberry order so
we will pass that along thru a group email soon.

Jollity Farmers

Duncan Pickup Needed

Can you help Jollity with a fish food pick up in Duncan today?

Our Koi are an important part of our aquaponic lettuce growing system and unfortunately, we ran out of feed before we could make it back to Duncan. With market day ahead of us it's hard to get away from the farm!

If anyone is doing errands or coming through Duncan today, would you consider picking up our order? It could be at either Top Shelf feeds or Pet Zone. We can call it in, whichever is more convenient.

We'll definitely trade you some fresh salad greens for your assistance!

Please text or call Elisabeth or Noah at 250.210.7320 or 250.415.0101

Rikst Attema Patients? Medication Pick-up Request

My naturopath in Duncan, Rikst Attema, told me she has a handful of patients that live on Thetis and I'm wondering if anyone will be going to see her in the next few weeks and could pick up a medication at her office for me?

Thanks so much,

DIY Smoke Filter Spots are Filling Up!

It is summer forest fire season and with it comes smoke. On June 26th (10am ‘til noon) Forbes Hall will be hosting a DIY Smoke Filter workshop. There are 10 air filters kits with a value of over $70 provided by the BC Lung Association. As there are only 10 kits, I am asking people to reserve a spot. As of now I have 5 spots left available.

It is a really good deal, so please let me know if you are interested.
