During the pandemic islanders showed creativity in creating safe events to

celebrate the holiday season such as the Christmas Farmstand Tour. Residents on Salt Spring created a map of participating farmstands so people could drive around and, at a safe social distance, sample goods from brightly decorated farmstands. Just another example of neighbours working together to help make our community thrive.
