☕🌸 Slow Saturday Garden Club Week 6! 🐝🦋

This weekend, we’re bringing a little more buzz to the garden! 🌿

Your Week 6 goal is to create one pollinator-friendly space using plants that help attract bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other garden visitors. Whether you’re adding a few blooms to an existing bed or creating a new little pollinator corner, every plant can make a difference. 💜

Not sure what to plant? Bring us a photo of your sunny garden bed, front yard, or backyard, and the Ritchie team can help you choose pollinator friendly perennials, native plants, flowering shrubs, and more.

🌼 This weekend’s garden win: Create one peaceful garden space that’s buzzing with life.

Coffee in hand. Pollinators stopping by. Garden looking a little better than before. ☕🐝🌿

Rain is essential for healthy pastures and crops, but prolonged wet weather can create challenges for livestock owners. Damp conditions inside barns can lead to poor air quality, mould growth, wet bedding, and increased health risks for animals. Keeping your barn clean, dry, and well-maintained helps create a comfortable environment that supports the health and wellbeing of your livestock throughout the rainy season.

Whether you care for horses, cattle, chickens, goats, or sheep, taking a few preventative measures can make a significant difference when the weather turns wet.

Rain is one of the most important ingredients for a healthy garden, but not every flower enjoys prolonged wet conditions. While some plants struggle with soggy soil or heavy rainfall, others continue blooming beautifully and even thrive with the extra moisture. Choosing flowers that naturally tolerate rainy weather can help your garden stay colourful, healthy, and resilient throughout the season.

Whether you're planning a new flower bed or refreshing an existing one, selecting rain-tolerant blooms can reduce maintenance while providing long-lasting colour.

Rainy days often mean muddy yards, cancelled walks, and extra time spent indoors. While many pets enjoy relaxing around the house, long periods without enough physical activity or mental stimulation can quickly lead to boredom. Dogs, in particular, thrive on routine, exercise, and opportunities to use their natural instincts to sniff, chew, solve problems, and play.

The good news is that rainy weather doesn't have to be boring. With the right toys, treats, and enrichment activities, you can turn a gloomy day into an exciting one for your pet. At Ritchie Feed & Seed, we're proud to support local businesses, including Bones & Stuff, an Ontario-made brand offering natural dog chews and treats that help keep pets happily occupied.

One small project can make a big difference. 🌿

This week, we challenged you to refresh one outdoor space, whether it was a patio, balcony, porch, planter, or a cozy garden corner. No major renovation, no perfect design… just one simple improvement that makes you want to spend a little more time outside.

Now we want to see your progress! 📸

Share a photo of the small space you refreshed and tell us:
🌼 What did you plant?
🪴 What was your favourite addition?
