Market day! You know you're in good with the wild mushroom woman when she throws a couple extra fat chanterelles in your bag. (I 🖤 the mushroom woman. She's French Canadian w/ a mess of grey & purple hair, & looks exactly like you'd expect a woman who lives in the woods gathering mushrooms to look.)
Also shopping for Thanksgiving next weekend, which is why I now have 4 dozen eggs. 1 dozen are for ice cream.
Damn, I love living here.

Another beautiful morning in the #CommunityGarden, including a nice haul for the local food bank. (This is just what I picked; others picked & brought more.)

'Fears of a massive fish die-off in Cowichan River if conditions don't improve'

Friend and #CowichanValley legend Joe Fortin died a couple of weeks ago. He always greeted me with a hug, sometimes a small gift, and an "Ahka tahka tah," his warm, made-up greeting.
He made the most wonderful bird houses, but I never bought one because we don't have a yard. At his celebration of life, I realized that I didn't need a yard: it's okay to have one as a piece of art by a friend.
I miss you, Joey, you glorious, joyful human. Ahka tahka tah.

Tribute to the #PacificNorthwest.
One of the #woodburned planks on the boardwalk at the #Somenos Marsh Wildlife refuge/estuary. I overlaid one of my foggy Autumn photos of Lake Cowichan over the marked plank photo.
This wetlands estuary is a key part of S’amunu (Somenos) watershed in South #CowichanValley, just outside of downtown #DuncanBC.Learn more & visit it sometime - birders love these wetlands:
The Somenos Marsh Wildlife Society (SMWS) is a 35-year-old charitable society made up of people who care deeply about the S’amunu (Somenos) Watershed. This biodiversity-rich watershed is the traditional home of the #Quwutsun People, a nursery for salmon, a resting place and winter home for migratory waterfowl, and a sanctuary for many other endangered and common species. The work of the SMWS is both restorative and educational.

I'll post some belated stuff today; my last full day off before returning to work tomorrow.
One of my search & rescue friends took me away for an off grid day hiking adventure yesterday & we got home last night.#Carmanah Point #LightStation was established in 1891. The first #lighthouse there was built of wood & attached to the keeper's housing. The present tower was built in 1920 of concrete & remains in operation. The area is said to be named for the upstream #Nitinaht village. It is said the name means "thus far upstream".
In Summer 2024, #Canadian Fisheries & Oceans along with the #CoastGuard announced that the light station was seismically unstable & would be destaffed before the end of the year. On Oct. 25, lightkeepers were removed from the station. The decision to destaff the station has been met with heavy criticism from various local authorities, including local governments, indigenous leadership & industry leaders.

#Backroads on #DididahtTerritory.
This is part of the #SanJuanRiver & forests in the valley. The #watershed area is under ongoing #ecological threats by industrial #clearcut #logging. This is near #CarmannahWalbran #BritishColumbia provincial park.
The forests here are longtime foraging, mating & birthing grounds for the #CowichanValley Roosevelt elk herd. The San Juan is an important salmon bearing river. The old growth forests here are home to several #SpeciesAtRisk & #EndangeredSpecies.
There is ongoing eco activism work to try & protect more of the forests & #waterways in this #wilderness valley on Southern #VancouverIsland.#SilentSunday #monochrome #Nature #WildFirst #landscape #photography #WorldInMyEyes #VanIsle #UncededNativeLand #Cascadia #environmental #StopDeforestation #StopEcocide #BCForestryReform #forests #ProtectTheWild #WildFirst #Conservation #PacificNorthwest #PNW #SaveOurForests #TreesOverGreed #BanCorporateLobbyists #WaterIsLife #ProtectWatersheds #NatureFirst #Degrowth #ClimateChange #CarbonSinks

#CallForArtists interested in enhancing #healing environments at the future #Cowichan District #Hospital.
To enrich healing environments indoors and outside the new Cowichan District Hospital, expected to open in 2027, Island Health is pleased to announce a call for #artwork to be #commissioned for display at the site. Local #VancouverIsland #artists are invited to contribute their creativity and vision to foster spaces of healing, hope and comfort for patients, families, staff, medical staff and volunteers.
Artists interested in contributing to this initiative are encouraged to attend the Cowichan District Hospital Replacement Project Art@CDH introduction event at the Cowichan Community Centre on November 1. We are seeking artwork that resonates with the themes of healing, resilience and the vibrant culture of the #CowichanValley. Selected artworks will be featured prominently throughout the hospital, including the Community Hall, patient units, entrances, corridors, waiting areas, and outdoor spaces. Some artworks will be carried over from the existing hospital.
To indicate interest in the #ArtsProgram or to receive more information about art opportunities and the event on November 1, please visit: http://www.islandhealth.ca/newcdh/arts
Sign up for updates:
https://redcap.viha.ca/redcap/surveys/?s=DAFN9MA9KE8PF43RThe #CowichanDistrict Hospital Replacement Project is being delivered by the #NutsamaatAlliance, whose partners include Island Health, EllisDon Corporation, Parkin Architects, BC Infrastructure Benefits and Infrastructure BC.

#Fish & #Wildlife: The #KoksilahRiver supports regionally significant #aquatic #ecosystems and fish species, including #chinook, #coho and #chum #salmon as well as #steelhead and resident #trout. These fish populations are both culturally and economically significant to local First Nations. It is essential to the survival of many species of #birds, #mammals, #reptiles, and #amphibians.
#Farms & #Vineyards: Approximately 15% of the lower watershed supports a significant #agricultural community including many large dairy farms as well as smaller mixed and organic farms. The pastoral landscape is a also a favorite wine-touring route and is a thriving and expanding #RuralTourism business.
Forest: Approximately 73% of the #KoksilahWatershed is Privately Managed #Forest Lands and another 6% is Crown #Forestry Lands.
#Recreation Opportunities: The Koksilah Watershed is home to several parks including the #KoksilahRiverProvincialPark. It is enjoyed by many in the valley as a refreshing place to swim on hot summer days because the water temperature is always cooler than the #Cowichan River. It is also used extensively by white water paddlers, particularly in the winter months.

At the local community garden AGM last night, I learned that our library has a seed library program: With your library card, you can take up to 3 seed packets per visit, from April through September. I love this idea so much that I volunteered to help with repackaging the seeds from one big to many small packets when they arrive.
So! If you're in or around Duncan, BC and are looking for seeds this spring, go to the library!
