Called Recharge Solutions, Gail aims to help rural non-profits to find the right people, strategies and processes to thrive. Moorhouse offers a menu of strategic planning and board training and brings a perspective from both sides of the Board table.

Kara Parcells recently opened her own independent dental hygiene clinic in Lindsay. Called Evolve Dental Hygiene, Kara offers assessments, cleaning, stain removal, whitening, fluoride treatments, desensitizing, cancer screening, as well as holistic alternatives.

Local businesses interested in upping their email marketing game can attend a lunch and learn workshop this Thursday at the PK Chamber of Commerce offices at 175 George St. in Peterborough.

Presented by the Digital Marketing Squad and Acorn30, you’ll learn how to effectively reach customers via email, manage and segment customer lists and data and software and tools for email marketing. To register for this Thursday’s Noon-hour workshop, visit pkchamber.ca.

I’ll often highlight local companies who have been recognized with special awards, within their industry, or Provincially or Nationally, but this is the first Peony that I’ve honoured… Blossom Hill Nursery, located on Fife’s Bay Road in Selwyn Township, was recently awarded the Canadian Peony Society’s Peony of the Year for “John’s Dream”.

The propagation path from two pieces of root to a Peony of the Year is incredibly complex, but that is what Hazel, Joe and Amy Cook do for a living. Check them out at blossomhillnursery.com and congratulations!
