Tomorrow - July 1st is the first day of our local market.

I believe the hours are Wednesdays 12 - 4 and there is usually fresh baked goods, crafts, local vegetables, jams and jellies and spices. I always find something good there but unfortunately it only lasts for July and August!

Summer has arrived and we are now open 7 days a week!

Monday to Friday 10AM until 5:30PM and Sundays 11AM until 5PM

Saturday was a busy day in Kagawong with the opening of a new store!

The KuKu Hut opened up right across the street from the Chocolate Works. Amanda Flanagan has been spending the last few years traveling around Kenya and Africa working with schools and church's teaching the children there. Along the way she has picked up some really nice African crafts and has brought them back to Canada to open a store for the summer.

I purchased a beaded wooden bowl to use for sampling in the store. It will be perfect for sampling jelly beans and small chocolates.

A few customers showed me some of their purchases at the KuKu Hut and I saw some really nice things!

The new store is a welcome addition to the town!

The Temperature rose up to over 20 C finally! It was such a great sunny day the customers were thrilled to be able to walk along Bridal Veil Trail without a jacket on.

Check out the new logo for our Belgian Chocolate Cupcakes under Seasonal Favourites! Heather's friend designed it for her! Now they look very professional!

It is really the small things that make it a great day.

What chilly weather the local High School kids had for their annual release of rubber duckies down the local Kagawong River. They release the ducks at the bridge over the river and the first ones caught at the mouth of the river win a prize. I don't think you could pay me enough to stand in those freezing waters to catch the ducks but the teenagers sure do a great job.

It was nice to see the cottagers return to town and drop in to say hello! It now feels like summer is almost here!

The other thing that makes it feel like summer...the chip stand "The Riverside" opens on the weekends! We couldn't resist our fist taste of Poutine....mmmmmm. It is a treat to have and it's only available in the summer in Kagawong.

We have just completed our new web site and are very happy to finally have it online. We hope you enjoy it and please let us know what you think of it.
