It’s finally summer, and there is a new energy and sense of purpose in our community! It has undoubtedly been a tough year, and no one has escaped the impact of the pandemic on their personal, family and work lives. But I think there are two words that capture our mood right now. The first is OPTIMISM. As the vaccines are rolled out and our case counts steadily decrease, I think there is renewed hope that a more normal future may soon be in sight. And the second is RESILIENCE! It is amazing, encouraging and uplifting to see how as a society and a community we have fought back. Our local independent businesses, in their determination to survive, have found so many ways to innovate and adapt. We salute them all. We’re almost there… Stay Strong and Support Local!

PUBLISHER'S LETTER

WELCOME, SUMMER! If there’s one lesson I hope we’ve learned over the past year and a half, it’s this: despite our hardships and no matter the season, we’ll always find delight and comfort in nature. Discovering our city’s great outdoors is our theme for this, our Summer 2021 issue. From growing your own vegetables to picnicking al fresco, we’ve got tons of great suggestions for getting outside over these next warm, sunny months. Enjoy the fruits (and veggies) of your labour by building a raised garden bed. With so many benefits versus battling your lessthan-ideal garden conditions, these attractive, hardy structures are easy to create and maintain. Check out our Home & Garden story for tips and tricks. We’re so blessed here in Mississauga with an abundance of incredible natural features, but there is perhaps none grander than the mighty Credit River. In our History section, our friend and environmentalist Anwar Knight shares how this majestic waterway has shaped our communities. We hope you love this issue’s Shop Local, our companion guide for where to pick up the latest picnic accessories so that your day in the park is, well, a day in the park! Remember to support the small businesses that are the heartbeat of our city. If you haven’t heard of pickleball, you will. Soon. Discover this burgeoning sport in our Health & Wellness story. It’s picnic season! Time to pack a basket full of goodies and head for one of our beautiful parks and/or beaches. In our Food & Drink story, we share some insightful ingredients to make your adventure as lovely as it sounds. And finally, read about 100 Women Who Care, an incredible worldwide initiative that’s helping local charities in our very own community. Together, we can make a difference! Have a safe and happy summer,

C R E AT E A RAISED V E G E TA B L E GARDEN FOR A HAPPY HARVEST

n the summertime, there is nothing more satisfying than savouring a fresh slice of a juicy, ripe red tomato or biting into a cool, crisp cucumber—and it’s even more delicious when that tender vegetable was grown in your very own raised vegetable garden!

The simple act of nurturing a young plant to fruition is not only good for the environment, studies show that a connection to nature is a healthy outlet for anxiety, especially during uncertain times, as well as a practical exercise in self-sufficiency. There’s something so satisfying about tending to something and watching it thrive—and even gardening failures hold important lessons to be learned.

Look Local Volume 2 | Issue 3

Whether you’re a novice gardener or a seasoned pro, why not hone your veggie-growing skills by growing your own food?

MAKE YOUR BED Even if you don't have a lot of time for gardening, you can still have a productive vegetable garden, no matter the size, by starting with a raised bed. It’s a shortcut to a plentiful harvest, even in the first year. The benefits are many: Garden anywhere! Attractive cedar raised beds are an asset to your landscape. Create perimeter gardens, spice up your entryway, grow food in your front yard, or hide an eyesore. You can harvest more food in less space. Set plants closer together so that every square inch is productive. Use small-space gardening techniques like succession planting and vertical supports to ensure you’re maximizing the space.

You can plant earlier. Excess water drains better and soil warms up faster in spring compared to in-ground beds. Specialized covers and garden fabric help you get started even earlier. You can use better soil. A productive vegetable garden depends on good soil. With a raised bed, you start fresh with the ideal soil blend—even if the soil in your yard is poor. You’ll see fewer weeds. Because raised beds are densely planted, weeds have little room to grow. And when they do find space, it's easy to pull them from the loose, rich soil. Easier pest control. It’s simpler to manage insects and exclude animal pests compared to long garden rows because you can easily cover beds with row fabrics or specialized covers.

"Incorporating a showy flower to attract pollinating insects may seem like an odd thing to include in a veggie patch but your cukes and zuccs will be happy you did!" — HILLARY PENN, HERRIDGE'S FARM FRESH MARKET

Less bending to tend. Deep root raised beds are 15” high, so you bend less during planting, caring for, and harvesting plants.

Time to decide what to plant! Fill your garden with the types of vegetables you like to eat. If your family loves salad, plant head lettuce, a lettuce cutting mix, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers and carrots. If you love to cook, plant onions and peppers, leeks, potatoes and herbs. Try to include at least one vegetable that’s new to you! See our handy list of Easy Top Ten Vegetables. To take advantage of space, "you can also try planting things that are tall and strong like corn or sunflowers," suggests Hillary Penn of Herridge's Farm Fresh Market in Clarkson. "They can act as a trellis so you don't need to build your own. Plant them beside vertical veggies like beans, peas and cucumbers. LL

Pickleball ? WHAT'S THE DILLY-O WITH

Your guide to this red-hot racquet sport By KRISTY ELIK

Look Local Volume 2 | Issue 3

ave you noticed pop-up pickleball games erupting on tennis courts near you?

By all accounts, pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in North America, but this colourfully-named game was actually invented more than 50 years ago by three dads in Washington state who were looking for a solution to their kids’ summertime boredom. A combination of tennis, badminton and ping-pong, pickleball can be played indoors or outdoors, in singles or doubles, on a badminton-sized court with a slightly modified tennis net. Enjoyed by all ages and skill levels, the popular game is played with a paddle and a plastic ball with holes. Today, pickleball is played all over the world—in fact, the USAPA (USA Pickleball Association, North America’s governing body on the sport) recently estimated that over 400,000 people actively play the game on a regular basis—and its popularity shows no signs of slowing.

S O H O W D O Y O U P L AY ? Two or four players use paddles made of composite materials to hit a perforated polymer ball, similar to a wiffle ball, over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. In addition to the modified net and gear, there are several key rules in pickleball that help make the game more accessible. In tennis, and many net sports, games are often won and lost by the power of the serve. In pickleball, the ball must bounce once on each side before volleys are allowed. This opens the game to more players and extends play for added fun.

A G O O D PAD D LE Initially, pickleball paddles were made entirely of wood; recently, however, lightweight materials like graphite and aluminum have been incorporated to lessen the weight of the paddle. The typical pickleball paddle is larger than a ping-pong paddle, but smaller than a tennis racket. Due to the inferior aerodynamics of the pickleball ball (thanks to its large holes), pickleball balls travel approximately one-third the speed of a tennis ball.

Look Local Volume 2 | Issue 3

The basics

Pickleball can be played as either singles or doubles and the rules are the same for both iterations.

The server will continue to serve, each time by alternating service courts, until the serving side faults.

Without bouncing the ball off the court, it must be served underhanded and diagonally to the opponent’s service court from behind the baseline.

Games are played to at least 11 points and must be won by a lead 2.

The serve has to clear the net and may not land in the kitchen. Points are scored when the opponent faults (failing to return the ball, hitting the ball out of bounds or into the net). Only the serving team can score.

After the ball is served, the ball must bounce at least once on each side before being able to volley the ball. This is known as the double bounce rule. Players cannot volley the ball while standing within the non-volley zone or on the non-volley line.

looklocalmagazine.com

BUT HERE’S THE QUESTION WE’RE LONGING TO ASK: WHY IS PICKLEBALL CALLED P I C K LE B ALL? Two theories: one of the founding dad’s wives started to call their game pickleball because the combination of different sports reminded her of the pickle boat in crew where oarsmen were chosen from the leftovers of other boats. But according to other sources, the game was named after the founder’s dog, Pickles, who was known to run off with the ball while it was still being played. Pickleball was introduced in Mississauga in 1993 by John and Margaret Hoyt (thank you!) and River Grove Community Centre was the first location to welcome pickleball players. To find out where you can play in the city, visit the Pickleball Mississauga Association at pickleballmississauga.com.

Players are referred to as “Picklers”, and those who have lost did not “lose”, they have “Pickled”. The 7-foot non-volley zone directly in front of the pickleball court’s net is called “The Kitchen”. The term “dink shot” is used when a soft shot narrowly arcs over the pickleball net and lands in the Kitchen (also known as the non-volley zone).

Our mighty Credit River connects us to natureand history By ANWAR KNIGHT

Look Local Volume 2 | Issue 3

here is a diverse and rich history that flows—literally!— through our region. The natural strength and beauty of the mighty Credit River has helped shape our communities in as many ways as the river is long. Beginning near Orangeville, the Credit is almost 90 kilometres long and is supplied by a network of winding streams and tributaries in an expansive network that stretches over 1500 kilometres.

‘ Trusting Creek’

Stories shared by generations tell of the Indigenous Peoples’ reference to the river as Missinnihe, meaning ‘trusting creek’. In time, as Indigenous peoples began exchanges with British and French fur traders, it evolved to become known as the Rivière au Crédit. Serving as an early river of commerce, the Credit earned its name when there were not enough pelts to meet prescribed trades, so “credit” was extended until the next spring. There is no question that this is a mighty waterway. As early settlers gathered in small communities along the banks of the river, it quickly became a powerhouse in the region, providing an energy source for some of the first saw and grist mills. The stream was a founding figure for communities like Inglewood, Norval, Huttonville, Streetsville, Mississauga and of course Port Credit, where it travels to its final destination into Lake Ontario. looklocalmagazine.com

Today, the river is within one of the most densely populated regions of Canada and encompasses some of the most diverse landscapes of Southern Ontario. While the commercial aspect of the river is now not as important as protecting its watershed and conservation, people continue to be drawn to its beauty and the water’s properties of calm and happiness. According to Credit Valley Conservation’s Jon MacMull, “Clean air, clean water, the assimilation of waste, the regulation of climate and of water flows, food, wildlife habitat, recreation, and spiritual opportunities are all provided to area residents by a healthy and functioning ecosystem with the Credit River at its heart.”

Look Local Volume 2 | Issue 3

A gorgeous spot to connect

The Credit serves as a captivating backdrop for the iconic Streetsville Founders’ Bread and Honey Festival every June, and as a beacon for anglers and admirers drawn to the riverbend in the heart of Erindale Park, Mississauga’s largest green belt. In autumn, enthusiasts watch as Chinook and Atlantic salmon make their way upstream to spawning grounds. The excitement of young families as they witness a 20 + pound fish swimming against the river flow is not to be missed. Fun fact: Salmon INTRODUCING were once so plentiful in the 2.3_LLM_Linea_QP_V1.indd 1 Emily Cox! river through the town of Terra Cotta, north of Mississauga, Formerly with Ego Salon... that it was previously named Now working Salmonville.

species, 64 fish species, 41 species of mammals, five species of turtles, eight kinds of snakes, 17 amphibians (frogs, toads, salamanders and newts) and 1,330 plant species.” What’s more, the river is the most diverse cold-water fishery in Ontario, perhaps even North America. To support future enjoyment of the Credit, a new trail system will eventually span 100 kilometres along the river, connecting Orangeville to Port Credit. To date, 32 kilometres are complete,

with a campaign underway to raise funds for the remainder of the legacy trail. These types of natural outlets have only become more important, as the pandemic highlighted the need for access to diverse, natural spaces and the critical role they play in health and wellness. Credit Valley Conservation, for one, has seen a nearly 70 per cent increase in visitation during the pandemic. A big part of the draw, naturally, are the sights and sounds of the majestic Credit River. Picture, on your next visit to this life-giving body of water, the expanse of the powerful history that exists along its banks… and remember that the sounds of its mighty flow would also be familiar to those of generations past.

Tips & tricks for your next al fresco adventure

re there two words that go together better than “summer” and “picnic”?

We didn’t think so. Read on for a list of great ideas to help you create a safe, fun—and delicious—family-friendly experience you’ll remember long after the summer’s over. Whether you plan an outdoor potluck dinner with friends, a large family reunion, or a romantic wine-and-cheese date with a special someone, picnics are a great way to enjoy the sunshine, warm temperatures, and beautiful surroundings of Mississauga’s parks and beaches.

THE BASICS, PLEASE Start with a large, cozy blanket—bonus if it has a waterproof lining on one side, or weighted corners to keep the wind from getting under it. Beyond that, think creatively when it comes to picnic comfort; for example, bring waterproof cushions from home to sit on, grab a couple of camping chairs or lightweight folding deck chairs, and pack smaller blankets to use as wraps if the temperature drops or for extra guests. To transport all of your goodies, you can use a traditional picnic basket for nostalgia, or you can sub in or add a cooler backpack, a light tote with a carrying handle, or one of the latest picnic backbacks that includes everything you’ll need: dishes, glasses, cutlery, cloth napkins, etc.—even salt and pepper shakers! When it comes to menu planning, think easy, tasty and “nonsticky”—nothing ruins a picnic faster than a complicated menu, or sticky-sweet hands and faces that can attract insects. Prep as much as you can the night before and use our handy checklist to ensure you don’t forget important items like recycling bags, bug spray and comfy seating. looklocalmagazine.com

MAKE A LIST AND

CHECK IT TWICE

Food storage containers: mason jars, Tupperware with locking lids in various sizes (you can use these to bring leftovers home) Hand sanitizer

Earth-friendly plates and cutlery – light, durable melamine or bamboo Pretty cloth napkins Instead of wipes, dampen paper towel with water and a touch of dish soap and transport in a reusable container

Prepare to leave nothing behind… so bring garbage and recycling bags, an organics bag, reuseable Ziploc bags

Look Local Volume 2 | Issue 3

Two big water bottles: one with plain water for rinsing, other with ice water as a backup drink in warm weather

Blanket—don’t forget to bring corner weights if it’s windy Sunscreen and bug spray Freezer packs

Soccer ball, baseball or volleyball Portable speaker for tunes

Don’t forget your sunnies and a cute sunhat!

LET THE FEAST BEGIN Traditional favourites are popular for a reason! Think chips, cheese and crackers, or cut veggies and dip (be sure to keep the dip cool!) If you feel like getting fancy, prepare antipasto bites the night before by loading olives, salami, prosciutto, grape tomatoes and cheese cubes onto mini wooden skewers. Another easy idea that kids love: spread cream cheese on a soft tortilla, layer flat slices of ham, salami or cheese, roll up and slice into mini “pinwheel” bites.

DELISH MAINS Make picnic prep simpler by assembling a main dish in advance that can easily be divided. Picnic pies are a British tradition that involve mixing meat with veggies and eggs, baking in a loaf pan lined with pastry crust, then cooling completely until served in slices to hungry picnickers. A freshly baked baguette transforms into a hearty picnic submarine sandwich: simply offer a charcuterie board with meat, cheese and veggies and have picnic guests customize their slices with interesting condiments, like garlic scapes, olives and pickles.

FRESH REFRESHMENTS Working up a sweat kicking the soccer ball around? Reach for sparkling water, lemonade or iced tea in plastic mason jars! Just add ice and sliced fruit for an extra summery taste. If you have a large plastic bottle or dispenser with a spout, set out punch with plastic cups and have picnickers help themselves. For the grownups: canned wine, beer and or/coolers. Don’t forget the insulated wine tote, corkscrew if needed, a wine topper, and insulated can cozies.

looklocalmagazine.com

SWEET TREATS Think beyond the fruit tray (which will likely attract pesky pests… ants, anyone?) Instead, mini mason jars can hold pre-assembled individual s’mores “sundaes”: layer pound cake with mini marshmallows, chocolate syrup and graham crackers. Keeping with the s’mores theme, why not add chocolate chips and graham cracker crumbs to the traditional Rice Krispies squares recipe? More traditional favourites like cookies, brownies, banana bread, or mini muffins are sure to hit the spot. O R TRY O U R M IXE D B E R RY FR E S H FR U IT SAL AD

A CARE IN THE WORLD How 100 Women Who Care Gives Back By KRISTIN PSIHOGIOS

"We have a great group of women who are helping to create processes and guidelines as we move forward.”

hen Christine Hull first envisioned giving back to her community, she was looking for something that women like her, often stretched for time but committed to local service, could help enlist positive change without an intensive time commitment. Prior to this, she had been involved in other fundraising groups and women’s organizations but hoped to make an impact in the community. “I wanted to make a difference here in Mississauga,” she says. “I grew up here and came back when my husband and I were thinking of marriage and kids. It was important to me to make an impact here in my city.” She came across the organization 100 Women Who Care but found that the Mississauga chapter had lapsed. Within weeks of sending an application to the 100 Alliance last February, she had the approval to relaunch.

The concept is simple—an innovative and immediate way to fundraise aimed at supporting grassroots charities and causes. 100 women, 1 hour, $100 each, $10,000 raised. HIGH IMPACT, MANAGEABLE TIME COMMITMENT. Reaching out to clients, entrepreneurs, and friends Christine had an overwhelmingly positive response and it came together quickly. “This is all run by 18 amazing volunteer women, with 100 percent of our funds going directly to the charity,” she notes. “A lot goes on in the background to make this one-hour meeting successful. We are fortunate to have fantastic women writing social media content, designing the website, editing content, finding sponsors and members—it is such a group effort!” Although it’s not quite the small commitment she had been looking for, the enthusiasm of the team and sponsors make it possible.

With their official launch on April 20, the Mississauga chapter has committed to meet 3 times per year for one hour to choose a charity to receive the donation. Charities are nominated by members, and then 3 finalists are randomly drawn. Representatives from each organization will present their case to the committee during the Giving Circle Meeting and then members vote. Once the votes are in, each member donates $100. Simple. Effective. To be eligible, the benefiting group must be based in Mississauga, nominated by a member, and have an immediate and specific need to be fulfilled. This year, The Dam, a youth drop in and outreach centre in Meadowvale, will be the recipient. The efficient way 100 Women who Care operates is clear proof that women really can do anything—making real grassroots change quickly and effectively. The impact is almost immediate with 100% of the donations going to the cause. 100 Women Who Care is currently at 50 members, including Mississauga mayor Bonnie Crombie and other councillors. They are looking for other compassionate and enthusiastic women who care deeply about local causes. Their next Giving Circle is December 8, and applications are open now with an info session October 19 at 7:30. If you would like to give a one-time donation to be included in the sum going towards The Dam, please send an e-transfer to office @thedam.org and add a note “100 Women Who Care Mississauga” and your first and last name.
