Exciting Events at McSmiths in 2008
JAN  2008     Cathy and Gary are both busy taking courses in their off-season.
               Cathy is taking several online courses dealing with Organic Livestock                  and Field Crop Production . She is also enrolled in home study                        courses in Applied Botany, Greenhouse production etc.
               Last summer Cathy enjoyed being  an Organic Inspector doing over                    60 inspections. She anticipates doing more than that in 2008.




We continue to supply our customers with McSmiths Organic Chickens. We even have our chicken on the menu Garlic's London and Lotus Thai restaurant in St Thomas. Express Organics Delivery company from London carries our meats and many other products

We enjoyed selling our organic produce at the Horton Street Farmer's market in St Thomas. Customers anxiously waited to see what new variety of zucchini,eggplant,tomato etc we would bring each week.



Gary finished installing his first solar thermal system (since our own installation).He has several other customers interested especially since the introduction of the ECO - ENERGY  rebates from the governments




Jan 2008   In order to meet the demand for our organic chicken we decided to
            invest in the purchase of more chicken quota. This is an expensive                   undertaking but we know that our customers will be more satisfied.
            McSmith's particpated in the London Wine and Food .....what a great              chance to give out samples of our Organic Chicken prepared by Lotus                Thai restaurant from St Thomas
