Explore Nature Trails!

It’s a great time to get out into nature, whether you hike, bike, atv or explore on horseback. Rather than going alone, gather a group to explore Canada’s nature trails and check out the changing leaves. Don’t forget some snacks of course, like bottles or water, granola bars or these tasty trail mix packs. They’re easy to prepare, perfectly pocketable, and offer a quick burst of energy!

F is for Farmers Markets!

Fall is fantastic for visiting farmers markets, especially if your favourite farm also offers apple picking or a pumpkin patch! At this time of year, you’ll find tons of fresh local produce, like squash, apples, and brussels sprouts, along with locally produced hot sauces, honey, jam, specialty beverages and more! Some of those locally produced products might even make great gifts when purchased together and packed into baskets!

Bake up a batch of fall or Thanksgiving themed cookies, and add them to single serve cello bags, along with a label or card. Then, deliver the cookies to family, friends and neighbours for a thanksgiving surprise. You might even want to deliver a few batches to a local homeless shelter. Meals are always in high demand during the holidays, and treats like cookies can make them feel extra special.
