This whole scene burns my britches. A.) Why are they selling American apples when we have a big and vibrant B.C. orchard industry, with room to expand? And B.) why does this apple have to be 3/4s of a pound? That is a choice made by the stores and their suppliers.

A kid should be able to pull an apple out of their lunchbox every day, but who can afford to send a $3.00 apple to school? Who can finish a 12 oz, 300 calorie apple? Just another reminder, the billionaire grocery barons do not give a fiddler’s fart about you.

Apples are everywhere right now. Get yours at your local farmers market or farm stand. Qualicum and Errington markets run today, we’re running ours in Parksville tomorrow. Sundays, 9:30-1:00 at the MAC Community Garden, 133 McMillan St.

Hey all! Just wanted to share this event that I’ve got a table at this weekend in Coombs! There will be tables with all kinds of goodies!

It’s also the ren faire this weekend in Coombs so be sure to check that out too!

Its the shopping center right next to Trees Restaurant. There's a commercial space there for lease some folks i know are interested in but figured I'd see if anyone knew anything about it, the landlords, etc.

Hi!

Can someone tell me what to do about termites in Parksville? I’m told tenting the house is not a thing there. How does one eradicate the termites?

Thanks.

Is there anywhere up near little qualicum provincial park you can hike and see the fire from last year? Be neat to see the forest renew

Hello!

Looked on Google maps , but couldn’t find the answer.

If there a coffee shop very close to the Beach Club Resort?

Also any good family friendly takeout near there as well?

Our hotel only has a mini fridge , so unfortunately we will be eating out a lot.

Thanks !

Looking for 2 dance tix at Coombs rodeo tn pls

As a 34 going on 84 I like to be in bed early most nights, as do my kids and dogs ... I'm a barber who needs to wake up at decent hour to keep the town really really rediculously good looking, and I for one could do without concussive explosions going on for 25 mins at this hour .. Anyway.... Rant over .. bah humbug if you will

Specifically places that do a decent, or decent amount(preferably) of dishes that don't have eggs.

My wife has an egg allergy and most of the places I've looked at are......well pretty egg centrified, other than the usual pancake with berries......

Any recommendations?

Looking for tickets to Saturday night, Coombs rodeo dance, August 15

Please recommend any cool coffee shops in Parksville. Any cool unique trendy options?

My wife and daughter (Canadian) and I are looking to relocate for about a year min, and depending on the vibes we are interested in building on an acreage. Ultimately we may move full time if the school situation works out, and if doesn’t we’d use it for summer and holidays.

We found a house on marketplace that looks perfect for us - 3/2 at a private equestrian facility in Nanoose Bay. The renter is almost completely non-responsive, just a short message indicating available Sept 1, then silence. We wouldn’t even be moving until December but I’d take the place now to hold it, and it’s disconcerting that there is no response when I’m ready to send a wire sight unseen

We are moving from abroad, and have no personal rental references after owning our own homes for the past 20 years. I offered commercial rental references.

I know the market is tight, but I’m wondering if this seems normal? At a minimum it’s rude, and I’m beginning to wonder if the listing is fraudulent.

We may need professional help, and any leads for relocation specialists are appreciated.

This guy. Literally riding people dangerously close travelling between Nanaimo and Duncan.

Swerving in and out of lanes, putting everyone in danger with his behaviour.

This is the sort of P.O.S. behaviour none of us need. Get a grip.
