Comox Valley Farmers' Market (Saturday) — Local services in Courtenay

In the pouring rain our fellow farmers and wholesome hearted distributors along with patrons were happily nourishing themselves with great local foods. During such a time of so-called pandemia our community seems to be thriving with great heartfelt exchanges. We are so very blessed to have such consciousness surrounding us in such unusual times.

I bought some beans home and other produce from Costco the other day and my awareness was struck when I saw Mexico and other countries on the packaging. While on the other hand, in my arms reach I soon realized that we have everything we need and more with such abundance. I hope that more of us in the community will awaken to our microcosm here where we can all sustain ourselves and thrive together!

Nice family day? Nope, walked all the way from Woodcote to the market to pick up some deliciousness. Baby was allowed in, but not the dog. All the vendors along the fence that I talked to said it was voted in but they didn’t agree. Stupid, every one in Vic allows dogs. The whole city is anti dog, not a single dog park in the city. If you go near a field with a dog that shirt bi laws guy comes at ya. Bad experience. I vote the organizer of this...
