Monday, February 9, 2026 at 8:09AM There are a growing number of people who would like a standing order of
organic breads from True Grain to go with their weekly farm pick up.
https://www.jollityfarm.ca/order-form
We'll be picking up again this week so orders are due by Monday evening.
If you'd like a standing order, then please let us know. If there are
enough people we'll go back to making it part of our weekly pick up.
With thanks,
Jollity Farmers

Sunday, February 8, 2026 at 8:19AM I realized last night upon unloading the car at home at 11pm, that I had forgotten and left my rain jacket in the Gazebo at the top of Thetis ferry ramp while waiting for the 1:45 ferry to Chemainus. Thinking that I wouldn't find it where I left it yesterday and that i may have to purchase another jacket to stay dry this week, I was delighted to find it right where I'd left it on the bench. So, I must now thank my Lord Jesus for such an Island as Thetis and its residents who continue to build trust within our community. May you be encouraged my trust-worthy friends and neighbors.
Know Y'all are appreciated

Friday, February 6, 2026 at 8:00AM We need someone to fix up and expand a Sonos wireless sound network. There has to be someone or their grandkid here that can figure and reconfigure the system. Will pay. Call me.
In fact, is there a technology competent (PC, android or MAC) person available for minor fixes on Thetis? Could be a great side job for someone here. Just let people know on e-spokes.
