SEEDY SATURDAY WELCOMES SPRING TO KINGSVILLE

The Giving Spoon Fundraiser BY THE SOUP GURU &
Saturday & Sunday April 5th & April 6th 11:00am - 2:00pm 310 Sherk, St. Leamington
BY DONATION
The Unico Community Centre in Kingsville was abuzz with those of a green thumb persuasion for the Kingsville Horticultural Society’s annual Seedy Saturday event on Saturday, March 22. The gathering included six local garden vendors, master gardeners on hand to answer questions, a kids’ craft zone and a seed exchange table that served as the event’s main purpose. Kingsville Horticultural Society President Annette Cooper shared that the event served not only as a fundraising vehicle for their organization, but also encouraged community members to find their own ways to use flora to beautify the town. The Society is now planning for its next events — a Plant Sale on May 10 and a Vintage Garden Tour & Tea on both June 21 and 22. Above, Terry James Compost from Leamington was one of the vendors selling their wares on Seedy Saturday. Pictured from the family-run business, in the front, from the left, are Tessa Whitenect, Alexis Jarrold, and Teagen Simpson. In the back are Amber Jarrold and Terry Simpson. Below, tending to the seed exchange table were members of the Kingsville Horticultural Society, from left, Sharon Chase, Megan Irwin, Heather Crewe and Gord Queen. SUN photo by Paul Forman
Federal election April 28
Canadians will be going to the polls on April 28 for the 45th federal election, triggered by current Prime Minister Mark Carney this past Sunday. Carney was sworn in as Canada’s 24th Prime Minister on March 14 after the resignation of Justin Trudeau and took just over a week to call the snap election. For Ontarians, this will be the second election in two months, following the provincial election on February 27. Elections Canada does not list any local candidates as of press time, but several local hopefuls are preparing to announce their run. Incumbents are Dave Epp for Chatham-Kent Leamington and Chris Lewis for the riding of Essex.
