It's the locally owned and operated specialty grocers that offer a unique shopping experience and add to the character of a neighbourhood and the community.
They offer products you can't find anywhere else and the type of customer service you normally find in smaller towns where everyone knows your name.
Here are 11 local grocers you need to visit the next time you're stocking up your kitchen. Not only will they fill your bellies, but they'll warm your hearts!

Hiking 🥾season isn’t over yet! What are some trails you want to take on before the white stuff arrives?
This picture was taken at Driscoll Ridge, which is near the Ancient Forest trail. Both are worth checking out if you want to see gorgeous old growth cedars🌲

Fall is in the air, but it’s not too late to get outside and enjoy some time with your besties before winter sets in! Why not have a picnic at one of our local parks, including Lheidli T’enneh Memorial Park, which is pictured in this photo.

Today marks the #autumnequinox when both halves of the earth experience 12 hours each of sunlight and darkness 🍂🍁
This means cooler fall temperatures and shorter days. It also means pulling out sweaters, our last chance to warm up by a fire before winter, and finding new activities to enjoy.
Of course there’s still time to get in a hike or two to special places like Emerald Lake in the Caledonia Mountains.
What are you most looking forward to this fall?

When blogger Amy lived in #victoria and #vancouver she couldn't imagine having a dog because she didn't have the space.
Fast forward a few years and her family has bought a home 🏡 in #princegeorgebc with a big fenced backyard that's close to two #dogparks 🐕
Since then, they've welcome a dog into their family and discovered there are so many more dog-friendly attractions to enjoy in addition to the dog parks!
Read her blog to discover these spots so you can explore new places with your pup. Link is in our bio!
