Spring is in the air, and Team Fergmeijer is getting out and having adventures. The single half of the team had a date last night. She said it was really good, so she’s going to try a fig tomorrow. The other half of the team is married and as a gift, her husband took her out to an orchard where they stood there looking at the trees for half an hour. It was not quite the Apple Watch she was expecting.
Happy Mother’s Day to our Manitoulin Mom and our Mainland Mom! If moms were flowers, we’d pick you, because we love being y’orchids.

We know June is still a little ways’ off, but a little birdie told us the first Kagawong market of the year will be Wednesday, June 25. Save the date! We can’t wait to welcome all our summer vendors back to the Kagawong River Complex.

Team Fergmeijer just finished writing a book on penguins. It probably would have been easier to write it on paper. Have a great week!
