LOOKING FORWARD TO APRIL 25TH! A few reminders!



Who is excited? Zeal for Teal 2015 DOWN ON THE FARM is coming soon! Make sure you get your supplies packed and your day planned. But then again, don't worry if you haven't got enough to do. We have plenty to keep you busy! Remember we are going to have our sweet Stampin' Up Rep - Margaret Johnson (DeWitt) with us as always and then we have a new store this year - Scrapping Turtle from Elmira. Hannah Morley is the owner and is excited to meet you all! We are looking forward to spending another amazing day with you, too!

A couple of things to remember:
1. Don't forget to bring along a donation for the Food Bank if you are able. That will be greatly appreciated by many.

2. Don't forget to dig out the fanciest farm duds you can muster and get ready for the Zeal for Teal Spring Farm Fashion Show. Dust off those overalls, girls.

3. If you have a donation, now's the time to get it to us. We would love to acknowledge your generosity!

4. If you have anything for us to include in the goody box give-aways we will need at least 100 items. Please get them to us soon, if you would like to do any promo. We are happy to help.

5. Spread the word about walk-ins! $5 gets a lovely visitor a delightfully delicious snack, a shopping experience to make anyone's day and participation in most of the activities, silent auction, penny table, etc. $10 gets all of the above plus lunch (that will be between 12 and 1pm)

6. If anyone is able to donate baked goods, please let us know and then if you could have your goodies to us either on April 24th or the morning of the big day, that would be wonderful and greatly appreciated.

Thanks all.


See you all soon DOWN ON THE FARM! Can't wait. . .

Thanks Kabbes Patch Rabbitry!

Well look-ee hear. Some nice boiled eggs are on the breakfast menu on Saturday, April 25th at the Drayton Arena. Special thanks to Tracy Kabbes for donating the Omega 3 eggs to our DOWN ON THE FARM Zeal for Teal Scrapbooking and Craft Day. What a tasty treat from Tracy's happy chickens.
Get those rolling bags packed ready with all your scrapbooking paraphernalia, crafts, sewing stuff, buttons to sort, or anything else you might want to bring for a great day out with the girls.

Two onsite stores available for your shopping pleasure!

And SO much more. Stay tuned for more details.

Come on out and support us as we raise funds for the Sunflower Seeds Team at the Barrie Walk of Hope for Ovarian Cancer Canada.

Exciting Things Happening in the Barn


Planning and preparations are well under way for the 7th annual Zeal for Teal Scrapbooking and Craft extravaganza. This year, as you have likely already heard, we are telling our gals to get out the jeans and overalls. Our DOWN ON THE FARM theme is simple yet guaranteed to be a whole lot of fun. 

Even if you are not particularly crafty, bring your button box to sort, or your photographs to organize. Maybe your laptop could use cleaning out. How about those socks that need darning or the repairs that need doing - yes, of course you can bring your sewing machine! Just come on out and spend some quality time laughing & learning with some pretty good prizes throughout the day!

We'll be hanging around in the barn and the country kitchen, sharing a good cup of coffee or two and maybe a juicy bit of news.

We'll have fun pinning the tail on those ornery cows competing with anyone who dares muddy their boots on stage. We'll be digging into the boiled eggs and farmer sausage to everyone's delight. Can't wait to see what our farmers' wives are cooking up for lunch. Mmmm. I can smell those pies already.

And watch out for those Cow Patties!

Heather Clemmer is returning to treat all our farm girls to a well deserved bit of pampering. Come sit back in our comfy chairs and enjoy a free mini manicure.

The ever popular Silent Auction and Penny Table will have prizes to suit and tempt both city or country gal alike. Don't forget to bring along a little extra shopping money. The Country Market will be open for business and will be selling all sorts of great goodies.

Of course this day is about raising awareness and learning all about how we need to pay attention to our bodies. Ovarian Cancer is often called the silent killer because the disease is so insidious and quiet and is often diagnosed in the later stages because of that. Come join us and help us make a noise. We will have a fantastic day away from routine and sharing some intimate & joyful moments.

This day is for YOU. Bring your daughter, granddaughter, mom, grandmom, aunt, niece, sister, neighbour - the more the merrier. Check out the registration package on the right to register. It's not too late. We still have room in the barn for YOU!
