At our meeting this week, Shirley spoke about Fraser’s Thimble Farm on Salt Spring Island and the challenges they face due to water restrictions imposed there.
Fraser’s Thimble Farm is a mail order and retail nursery
specializing in rare, unusual and native plants. An article in a local newspaper shows what they
have done to conserve water over the years and the problems with permitting by
the North Salt Spring Waterworks District. They have started a petition.
