Jackie Peters (originally from Saskatchewan) and James Tardif from Montreal are cycling from Montreal to Vancouver in support of The Centre for Addictions and Mental Health based in Toronto. The pair left Montreal on Monday, June 13 and passed through Mildmay on Monday, June 27. They have encountered many friendly and helpful people in Ontario. Although the weather has been very good, they did have to set their tent up in the back yard of a school during a thunderstorm.

Yes, Dennis “Hymie” Schnurr had a huge crop of apples this year at his Mildmay residence, BUT, he also grew some huge, one might even say massive specimens!  He explained that he has two small grafts on the tree about 3-4’ long, and he got 2-3 dozen of these huge “Alexanders” apples from those 2 grafts!  In total, Schnurr has 3 apple trees with about 26 different varieties.  The photo below shows a regular sized apple on the right and one of the huge apples that filled Hymie’s tree.

Hoity Toity Cellars located on Hwy. 9 between Mildmay and Walkerton held their Community Harvest on Saturday, October 3rd, and once again, it was a huge success. About 35 people braved the chilly day to help harvest grapes and enjoy a luncheon and tasting.  They also had the opportunity to try grape stomping!
