Access Acres: Garden Fresh Vegetables
Access Acres, 1720 McTavish Road
North Saanich, BC
Photo: Four, forty-foot rows of salad greens (Spinach, Arugula, Mizuna, Tatsoi) are now ready for market, and one row of rapidly growing radishes about two weeks away.
Andrew Dunn, a long time friend of the family, has undertaken a major vegetable growing operation on the lower acreage at the McTavish Academy of Art, 1720 McTavish Road. The first crop is being cut, washed and bagged as a ready to use salad mix. Much more on the way as summer progresses.
Photo: Andrew preparing five more rows of carrots and other veggies. In the background, another plot is in progress.
Much of the product will be sold daily at the Academy, to family, friends, and visitors. The fresh produce will be on display at the front entrance, and in the near future, a stand will be built at the edge of the front parking lot where customers can drive in and purchase at their convenience.
For immediate neighbours of the McNeill family in Royal Oak (Leney/Viaduct East), we will bring batches home for drop off if you are interested. Contact me on my cell 250-889-1033. I will be dropping off samples for a taste test and I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
Each sale helps as this young entrepreneur, an avid gardener, works to develop a sustainable business. Drop by anytime and have a look at his operation and chat about his plans for the future. You will be impressed.
Regards,
Harold (250-889-1033)

Congratulations to Sue Hodgson, Publisher of Seaside Magazine on the launch of the new Magazine Website. The site, designed by Sean McNeill of McNeill Solutions, provides a bold new online presence for the locally owned and published magazine.
Sue Hodgson and her talented staff, Editor in Chief, Allison Smith; Design Assistant, Kelsey Bormann, and Advertising Sales, Marcella MacDonald, have worked to create a dynamic magazine catering to community interests along the West Coast with particular focus on lower Vancouver Island. Sue speaks to the collaboration between Seaside Magazine and McNeill Solutions:
“Seaside is all about celebrating the community, so we were thrilled to work with locally owned web design and marketing company McNeill Solutions. Designer Sean McNeill helped us to come up with a website that truly reflects Seaside Magazine.”
From his side of the equation, Sean states:
“It has been an exciting project to create with a magazine that’s so focused on local culture. Working with Seaside came to be through the strength of referrals in our community. We are excited to continue working with them in the future.”
Congratulations, Sean, on a job well done and to Sue and staff for their continued pursuit of excellence in the production of a quality magazine.
