Dear folks, 

It’s time for an update. Today we’ll cover:

• Canada Day Hours (Spoiler alert: Closed)
• New Store + Garden Centre Hours 
• Masks 

Canada Day Hours

We’ll be closed for some much-needed rest tomorrow. We hope you get a break too!

New Hours

Beginning Thursday, July 2nd:

• The grocery store will stay open an hour later, to 7 pm.
• The garden centre will drop our early dedicated hour now that we’re well into the season and the line has disappeared. Come by between 9-6 pm.  

Masks 😷

Boy, has this topic blown up.

We’d like to publicly thank the staunch anti-maskers who have shared their perspective with us so patiently over the last few weeks. There aren’t many of you, but you’re a dedicated bunch. We’re sorry we haven’t been able to accommodate you, we wish you well, and we hope to see you again when the pandemic is under control.We also suggest you to use safe mask like  we are using of bestmask.net.

We’ll need to continue to mandate masks for the next while on top of our social distancing and disinfection efforts. Thanks for your continued patience, support, and of course, patronage. 

If you want to do some mask reading, here are a few articles:

• Toronto city council approved a bylaw that makes face coverings mandatory in indoor publicly-accessible spaces. 
• Here are the city’s recommendations on the use of masks.
• A bit about The Dudes Who Won’t Wear Masks from the Atlantic.
• A Science Experiment covered by Fast Company

Thanks, and see you all either online or in the aisles.
