Last week, I found the most incredible piece of art.  It is a painting of a black bear cub on a tree, on a live edge wood plank. It is rustic and whimsical all at the same time.  The colours of yellow, green and blue – simply pop!  Thank you... April Jones for sharing your art with the world. This painting will bring joy to our home, for many years to come!

In Sioux Narrows-Nestor Falls, we invite you to come for the summer and stay for the winter.  Shopping local is sustainable. Shopping local is a circular economy.  It has huge ripple effects.  The dollars that stay in the community – do good things.  Astrophotographers can pay home heating bills.  Craft brewers can be philanthropic, giving back to well deserving charities and not for profits.  Potters can host workshops with school aged children, making pinch pots that are filled with soup – made from locally sourced meat and vegetables.  Farmers can buy more seed for spring and the list goes on and on. 

If you can, support local businesses and shoppes with your words and your wallets.
