We had such a blast at the Haliburton Art & Craft Festival this past weekend! Many thanks to Laurie Jones and the Rails End Gallery for inviting SIRCH to be part of this wonderful community event. Our Lemonade and Scone booth was buzzing all 3 days.

Kudos to our incredible Bakery Team who baked 936 scones. And to the Lemonade Team who made 1,479 glasses of lemonade, plus the homemade berry syrup shots. A heartfelt thank you as well to all the wonderful volunteers, staff, and board members who served at the booth.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to buy lemonade, scones or to donate. Your support means so much to us. All proceeds of this event will go towards the free Community Kitchen meals that SIRCH distributes across Haliburton County and North Hastings through a network of partner agencies.

Every sip you took will help put a healthy, fresh meal on a neighbour's table!

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝟏𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐬 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫!

One year ago, we planted just 21 tiny seedlings in one of our 15 Grow Towers. Today, that Swiss Chard is still growing strong, providing fresh, nutritious greens to support 𝐒𝐈𝐑𝐂𝐇’𝐬 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐬.

That is 365 days of growing, harvesting and making a difference from tiny little seedlings!

Please join us in celebrating this mighty little tower and the care that keeps it thriving.

Supporting food security and growing goodness...one tower at a time. 💚

☀️ 𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐈𝐑𝐂𝐇!
Next in our 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 is 𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐬 𝐄𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐫-𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡, who has found a great fit in the bakery at the SIRCH Bistro & Bakery!

With Judith and Kristina taking him under their wing, Silas has been learning new skills, building confidence, and helping create the fresh baked goods our customers enjoy. He’s excited to be part of the bakery team and from the look of these muffins, he’s already right at home!

𝐈𝐧 𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐬’𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬:

“𝘐 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘚𝘐𝘙𝘊𝘏’𝘴 𝘍𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘚𝘦𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘥, 𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘺, 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘦. 𝘐’𝘷𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘦𝘯𝘫𝘰𝘺𝘦𝘥 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴, 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘐 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘶𝘵𝘦.”

The next time you stop by the Bistro & Bakery, be sure to say hello to Silas and keep an eye out for the muffins he helped make!
