The @pecstudiotour weekend is almost here! From September 24-26 follow the studio tour throughout The County for your chance to go behind the scenes, meet the artists and observe their creative processes. If you're in the market this is a great opportunity to add to your collection, or if you're just looking for inspiration or something to do while visiting, this is a great opportunity to learn more about The County's art scene. ⁠
Check out the link in our bio for all the details. ⁠
⁠
Not visiting that weekend but still want to immerse yourself in County art? Be sure to check out the @pecartstrail for year-round, self-guided tour of galleries and studios in the region. ⁠

🐴 Make a Soul Connection 🌟⁠
⁠
Discover a place of calm, connectedness and tranquility with an Equine Soul Session experience at @healwithhorsesfarm Theraputic Centre this weekend. Spend your Saturday morning making deep connections through guided equine encounters, a quiet walk in the woods and a meal of local delights enjoyed around the campfire. This is a special County experience you shouldn't miss.⁠
⁠
Equine Soul Sessions run every Saturday through October 30, and they even have some availability remaining this coming weekend, September 18. These sessions are designed for adults and no riding is involved, so no experience is needed, just a love of nature and a desire to connect.⁠
⁠
What are you waiting for? Book your Equine Soul Session today and reconnect to yourself and nature before exploring The County.⁠

✨ Another summer for the books. ✨⁠⁠
⁠⁠
And just like that the Summer season has come to a close. Thank you to everyone who travelled safely, made a plan and explored off the beaten path to discover all The County has to offer. We loved seeing your vineyard vineyard visits, art crawls, double scoops, successful escapes, drive-in vibes and farm stand finds (and so much more). ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Most of all, thank you to the amazing County businesses from Consecon to Waupoos and everywhere in between that made it possible despite incredible circumstances. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠

🏖 Provincial Parks Update 🍃⁠ ⁠ While Aug

🏖 Provincial Parks Update 🍃⁠
⁠
While August has come to a close, we still have a long weekend and plenty of beach day potential ahead of us, and with that we wanted to share an update, a reminder, and a helpful tip to help you make the most of the final days of summer at The County's Provincial Parks:⁠
⁠
1️⃣ As of this Thursday, September 2, day use vehicle permits are no longer free from Monday - Thursday. Regular Friday - Sunday day rates will apply 7 days a week through the end of the season (Oct 31).⁠
⁠
2️⃣ The pre-booking system for day use vehicle permits remains in place until the end of the 2021 season. If you want to guarantee access during your trip we recommend you continue to book online in advance to avoid disappointment.⁠
⁠
3️⃣ Earlier in the summer we recommended to come when it's quieter, and that time starts now. Availability is looking good for the long weekend and we suspect this trend will continue throughout the next month.⁠
⁠
So, what are you waiting for? Soak in the last of the summer rays at Sandbanks or North Beach. We'll see you there. 😎⁠
⁠

👩‍🌾 Harvest season is here! 🚜⁠
⁠
Late August through October is a season of abundance in The County. Farm stands throughout the area are full to bursting with bushels of produce ready for your enjoyment now or for preservation to make the taste of summer last all year. Here's just some of what you can expect from our local stands now and in the coming weeks:⁠
⁠
🌽 Corn⁠
🍅 Tomatoes⁠
🥒 Cucumbers⁠
🍆 Eggplant⁠
🥔 Potatoes⁠
🥕 Carrots & Beets⁠
🎃 Squash & Pumpkins⁠
🥬 Cabbage & Other Greens⁠
🌶 Peppers⁠
🍎 Apples & Pears⁠
⁠
and so much more! So be sure to stop by a farm stand before you go to bring the taste of The County home with you. ⁠
⁠
As a gentle reminder, many farm stands operate on an honour system by cash or e-transfer. So please: before you take anything home with you, pay what's due. ⁠

Reserve now, relax later. ✔️⁠ ⁠ Top tip: d

Reserve now, relax later. ✔️⁠
⁠
Top tip: don’t wait to be hungry before you find a place to eat. If you’ve booked a place to stay this summer (or this Fall - yes, we're starting to talk about Fall!), lock in in your dining reservations and plan your meals into your travel itinerary to to avoid unnecessary hangry.⁠
⁠
Some restaurants offer reservations if you call ahead, some (like the newly opened @bocadopec and @themaranspec at their new location) offer online dinner reservations via their websites, and some are first-come, first-served with a waitlist at the door. So be sure to research your wishlist restaurants ahead of time and plan accordingly. Also, with the extreme temperatures this week some food vendors are closing their outdoor kitchens or modifying their hours out of safety concerns for their staff, so be sure to check their social feeds or call in advance to confirm operations.⁠
⁠
Some additional tips:⁠
⁠
1) Think outside of normal meal times. Consider planning for a late lunch or an early dinner out to avoid the rush. ⁠
⁠
2) Plan to wait a little while. If you are unable to make a reservation in advance, plan to arrive at your restaurant of choice a little early to get on the wait list, and in the meantime enjoy a stroll down the Main Street. Many restaurants will be able to call you when it's your turn.⁠
⁠
3) Stay in. If you've opted to eat out during the day, getting cozy at your accommodations is a great evening option. To make sure you're still having the full County experience, pick up some bits for the perfect charcuterie as you visit farmers markets, farm stands, and gourmet marketplaces in between the wineries, cideries, breweries and restaurants. Talk about a County bounty!⁠
