Hi!  John and Janet are traveling in British Columbia, Canada.  This is such an amazingly beautiful place.  The weather here is even better than Sonoma County, at least right now.   We are currently in a waterfront cottage on Salt Spring Island across the bay from Vancouver City.  Today we traversed the island and saw so many small farms, farmstands, and even enjoyed the small midweek Farmer's Market in the "heart of town" - Ganges.  We ran into vendors who hailed from the Healdsburg area, relocating here.  Why not?  Can't upload any pics yet but will when we get back home on August 28th.  In the meantime, to all our favorite Occidental Farmer's Market flower customers - check out Tierra Vegetables on Airport Drive in Windsor.  http://www.tierravegetables.com/ They might be carrying some of our garden fresh bouquets for sale.  See you soon.  Vine Hill Farm -Farmer John and Janet Maier
