YQG In Bloom Tracy Martens

You know summer is coming in the Essex County, Ontario (YQG) area when we start thinking/talking about strawberries. But this year we have a new event strawberry event to look forward to.
Wolfhead Distillery in Amherstburg, Ontario is putting on a Strawberrylicious Festival June 1st. Wolfhead is introducing their new Strawberry Gin. (I have tried it, and it is really good!) There are also a few other special Strawberry themed beverages and food so listen in! Although we are highlighting their new gin, check them out, because they have a really great selection of spirits as well.

I am also talking with the Lauren & Courtney from Julien’s House, a local charity that proceeds from the Strawberrylicious Festival is going to. Incase you have not heard of Julien’s House, it is a welcoming place where people dealing with grief can go to for support and understanding.

To purchase tickets for Strawberrylicious Festival or to see what other spirits that Wolfhead Distillery offers you can go to their website:

Korda Artistic Productions located at the KordaZone Theatre here in Windsor, Ontario is putting on a production of The Trench by Oliver Lansley. The Trench is inspired by the true story of a miner who became entombed underground in a collapsed tunnel during World War One.
This production is directed by Windsor’s own Jeremy Burke. I also talk to one of the actress’s in the play, Georgie Savoie.

Get a little insight into this production as well as others in our lovely little gem, The KordaZone Theatre.

Marija & I had a great time chatting about our love of supporting local. Shopping in small hometown stores, eating in local restaurants, and everything we can do to make sure that our communities are taken care of.
From following local businesses on social media and sharing their posts to attending markets and events, every little bit helps.

And while we are at it, try to keep the local love mentality when you travel. Check out small local businesses instead of chain stores & restaurants. It really does make your trips more special when you discover those hidden gems.1

Being a parent we deal with this and more. But Jill Moysiuk from Mom Said Duck has put a good spin on it. She creates wonderful poems that sums up everything we all feel when it comes to not only parenting but adulting as well. It's also nice to know that we are not alone on this journey and can laugh about it instead of crying.

Make sure to follow Mom Said Duck on Instagram and sign up for Fresh Poem Friday. Each Friday you receive an email with a new poem. So worth it!
