Emergency Boat Tow Needed

Hello, Fellow Islanders,

I am stuck in a pickle. I can't seem to get my outboard engine to run properly so I was wondering if anyone could help get it back to Thetis ?

I don't want to pay for another night at the dock as I'm on disability and it’s using up my money for the month of November.

 Any help is greatly appreciated.

I can be reached at 250-436-1006

Thank you
Jasmine

Sheet Wanted

Does anyone have a white or light-coloured bed sheet that you no longer need?

We are hoping to use one for a Halloween costume; thought I'd check here before heading to the thrift store.
Thanks,

Good For Your Gut Offerings

As autumn deepens and we move into the cooler season, we naturally turn toward cozy spaces and the comfort of rich, hearty meals. During these darker, chillier days, nourishing our digestion is vital and keeps us grounded and well. Good digestion supports mental well-being, immunity and the absorption of essential nutrients

On offer are three helpful companions:

Inside Out "Bread" - many of you are familiar with this robust (2lb) slab which is flour and gluten free, made with soaked seeds and GF oats. It is high in fibre and protein. Enjoyed daily with adequate hydration it can have a remarkably positive effect on digestion.

Fire Cider Chutney - a bold, pungent, warmly spiced condiment with health benefits. Made with fresh roots of ginger, turmeric, horseradish, onion, garlic, figs, raisins, dates, apple cider vinegar and unpasteurized local honey.

Purple Cabbage and Fenugreek fermented Kraut.

*all ingredients are organic, many lovingly grown here on Thetis Island

*all require refrigeration
