The Sawmill Trail is on land that was once owned by the Thomson family and was an integral part of Bayfield's history back in the late 1800s. The north side of the Bayfield River along the trail was once the site of both a grist mill and a saw mill. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/Week2Olssue254/tabid/668/Default.aspx 8/13 5/31/2019 Week 20 Issue 254 During the Trillium Walk, Gwen Richardson, of Active Transportation in Huron County, was stationed in Clan Gregor Square to hand out information about active living opportunities in the county as well as hand out free gifts to mothers in celebration of Mothers Day. The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association hosted a guided hike along the Sawmill Trail on Sunday afternoon to a small but enthusiastic group. There is still evidence of the large dam that held back the river. "It's hard to believe that Rainbow Valley was once the mill pond to store water to power both mills," said Chris Bowers, hike participant. "One could not help but take a leisurely pace to view the abundant spring wild flowers and active birdlife. "We were fortunate to have with us in our group a knowledgeable experienced hike leader and botanist who pointed out many different plants and flowers. Who knew that such varieties as Blood root, Colts foot, Blue Cohosh and Wild Ginger were on our local trails and easily seen by all hikers?" Bowers also noted that there was clear evidence that both Pileated Woodpeckers and Baltimore Orioles were active along the trail. "One could only recommend that other interested hikers could experience this Level 2 - 1.67 km trail and see this unique wild life personally," said Bowers. The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) and ActiveTransportation in Huron hosted the Trillium Walk. Information on other hiking and cycling opportunities in Huron County, healthy and active ideas for families, and a "gift for mom" were available at Clan Gregor Square during the hike times. Families that went for a hike were entered into a draw to win an exciting "active" prize! THE BRVTA now has several newly trained hiking leaders, eager to get out on the trails. They are offering at least two regular hiking events for each of the summer months, the second Sunday afternoon and the fourth Thursday morning, to be accompanied by three leaders for each hike. This will give the new hike leaders lots of practice and back-up if they require assistance. Hikes will be of varying degrees of length and difficulty. Some of the hikes will have an educational component to help acquaint participants with local history and the natural environment. Generally dogs on leash are welcome but it is always best to check with the hike leader. The usual meeting site will be Clan Gregor Square unless specified otherwise and car-pooling will be arranged from there. All hikers are reminded to wear proper shoes and bring water. Anyone with questions concerning specific hikes or who would like to make suggestions, call one of the hike leaders or contact the program coordinator, by email thyra.knudsen@gmail.com or phone 519 606-0016. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeek20lssue254/tabid/668/Default.aspx 9/13 5/31/2019 Week 20 Issue 254 The association has placed posts along the Sawmill Trail bearing Quick Response Codes to make the hiking experience both interactive and informative. a - Families were encouraged to take part in the Trillium Walk along the Sawmill Trail in honor of Mother's Day. Some of the members of the Johnston family, of Bayfield, as well as their four -legged friends, were among the folks that enjoyed Sunday's sunshine and warm temperatures. On May 22, at 9 a.m. Bannockburn Conservation Area will be the location for the next hike. Bannockburn is home to six different natural communities: wet meadow, eastern white cedar, deciduous forest, old field and mixed scrub and marsh. Late spring flowers may still be blooming. Pole walkers are welcome. This is a Level 2 hike and at a moderate pace should take just over an hour. The hike leaders will be Gary Mayell, 519 565- 5662, Roberta Stemp, 519 565-2777 and Patrick Capper, 519 606-0016 The flora and fauna along the trail did not disappoint. Although hard pressed to find a Trillium along the Sawmill Trail, hikers did spot this Purple Wild Ginger among other varieties of spring wildflowers. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeek20lssue254/tabid/668/Default.aspx 10/13 5/31/2019 Week 20 Issue 254 The hill at the beginning, and ending, of the Sawmill Trail may prove daunting to some but the journey is worth it as these hikers were soon to discover. f PIXILATED - IMAGE OF THE WEEK I�Me're back.... ] THE 2018-19 - SEASON cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeek20lssue254/tabid/668/Default.aspx 11/13 5/31/2019 Week 20 Issue 254 Ruby -throated Hummingbird...

(Clan Gregor Square 3-7 p.m.) I love it when people forward me news about events. And I think no less than six people sent me information about the Farmer's Market this week — hands down the most notices about one event in the history of this publication. The anticipation brings to mind our adventures at a Costa Rican Farmer's Market this past January. There was no shortage of interesting, organic, homegrown products from fresh bread to cocoa butter as well as artisans selling their creations. But the highlight had to be the produce lady — she arrived toward the end of the market and people waited patiently in the excessive heat for her entourage of assistants and baskets and baskets of herbs, fruits and vegetables. We got the 411 on how to behave when she got there from regulars. No one was allowed to touch anything until the mats were laid out, the baskets placed on them and the produce organized in the baskets and then only when the announcement was given could you start shopping. People stationed themselves by the kale or the tomatoes depending on their grocery needs for that week and then dove in. It was a little bit like the frenzy of a Black Friday Sale but people were jostling for organic greens rather than big screens. I'm sure Bayfield's market will be a lot less frenzied but I'm sure it will be just as much fun. Hope to see you there.
