Rowe usually purchases small loads of hay every couple of weeks, but with a lack of water comes a shortage in crops. “There’s nothing in the westend area,” she said, adding her current supply of hay will last
sure if they’ll get a second cut this season, she said. And those with the means are buying the farm food in bulk – something Rowe is unable to do. The farm sanctuary is only able to buy small loads of hay at a time due to financial restrictions. “Hay is our biggest expense,” she said, adding the farm goes through about 50 bales a week. “It seems like in this region, some people have been buying up all the hay in bulk so it is very hard to find a supplier, especially because finances restrict us from buying huge quantities at a time.” See GARAGE SALE, page 4

EMC news - Imagine a world with no plant life, no fresh air and no sunlight – the only way to experience those things is through a virtual reality. Throw in a rogue hacker, an aging bounty hunter “old enough to remember real wilderness,” and the corporatization of Mother Nature, and you have the
makings of Vivarium. Former Beaverbrook resident Natalie Baack is hoping to bring that imagery to life through the creation of the featurelength environmental sci-fi thriller, Vivarium, with help from the general public. “The idea came up that running a Kickstarter campaign would be really fun,” said Baack, who now lives in Los
Angeles and works as a movie producer and analyst. “We’re really trying to get the word out there, to get the support for the film.” Kickstarter raises funds online for various cause-based projects. See VIVARIUM, page 6
