Meet Chelsea! ๐ An Uplands member since 2016, she can be spotted out on the course or at the practice area almost every day as she trains to compete this year at the BC Juniors, defending her titles at BC Amateur, Canadian Juniors, Canadian Amateur, and PNGA Amateur. Among these accolades, we couldn't resist to mention she finished with a 66 at last year's Upland's Junior Club Championship, which earned her the women's course record! This powerhouse is inspired by Brooke Henderson, saying she is "just an incredible Canadian golfer", and it would appear she is well on her way to becoming a star in her own right. ๐ Drop her a ๐ to wish her luck this season before she jets off to the University of New Mexico for school in August! #MembersOfUplands #UplandsGolfClub

Today's break even bottle is @basilhayden Red Wine Finished Kentucky Bourbon. This special release is blend of the classic Basil Hayden high-rye mash bill and bourbon partially aged in Californian red wine casks. It's ripe with cherries and dried fruit, while also delivering characteristic bourbon flavours of vanilla and charred oak. Perfectly balanced, this bourbon is layered and complex, yet approachable and inviting with a warm and crisp, delicate mouthfeel. ๐ฅ #yyj #tastingvictoria #explorevictoria #ediblevanisle #bccraftbeer #victoriabc #yyjeats #yyjrestaurants #vancouverislandeats #yyjfood #yyjfoodies #yyjeatshere #vicfood #yyjdrinks #localcraftbeer #victoriabuzz #yyjtakeout #vanisle #cheers #bartspub

In an effort to aid police in addressing public safety, the BC government is seeking federal permission to ban substance use in all public spaces. ๐ซโ โ The Province says this is being done in an effort to have substance users find support and treatment while using drugs at safe consumption sites rather than on the streets. โ โ Specifically, police would have the power to enforce against drug use in all public places, including hospitals, restaurants, transit, parks and beaches.โ โ Drug use in several of these areas was already explicitly illegal. โ โ According to this new legislation, when police are called to a scene in which they determine people are using illicit drugs dangerously, they will have the power to tell the person to leave the area, seize the drugs or arrest the person. โ โ Since January 31st, 2023, the Province had successfully decriminalized possession of small amounts of drugs in a harm reduction-informed effort to destigmatize those who use substances.โ โ Since that time, BC has subsequently been putting into place new legislation that bans the use of drugs in public spacesโthis being the latest. โ โ Despite these efforts to control where and how substance users consume illicit drugs, the toxic drug crisis and the deaths that stem from it continue. โ โ According to data from the BC Coroners Service, most people who die of illicit drug use die while using alone and isolated from the public.โ โ Since April 2016, when the public health emergency was activated in BC because of the crisis, over 14,208 British Columbians have lost their lives to toxic drugs. โ โ The Province specifically noted in their announcement that this new legislation will not recriminalize drug possession while in a private residence, legal shelter, overdose prevention sites or drug testing location.โ โ Substance use in hospitalsโ In the past few weeks there has been a lot of attention paid to drug usage in hospitals and whether or not it is condoned. โ โ We are limited in what we can include in an Instagram caption.

If you are experiencing challenges achieving or maintaining a pregnancy, working with a naturopathic physician may help improve your fertility outcomes. ๐ซ As a naturopathic physician who has been working in the reproductive health field for over a decade, I understand the importance of targeting egg and sperm quality, the uterine environment, body composition and nutrition, and hormone balance when implementing a fertility enhancing plan with my patients. In my practice I use fertility focused supplementation, fertility diet and lifestyle recommendations, fertility acupuncture, and pharmaceutical medications. I value working in collaboration with your whole health care team, including your reproductive endocrinologist. Depending on where you are at in your fertility journey naturopathic therapies can be used on their own or in conjunction to fertility treatments such as IVF and IUI. Common fertility concerns I see in my practice include: ๐ธ PCOS ๐ธ Endometriosis ๐ธ Poor Ovarian Reserve ๐ธ Thyroid disorders ๐ธ Male factor infertility ๐ธ Recurrent pregnancy loss ๐ธ Unexplained infertility To learn more about my services or to book in with me, head to the link in my bio!โจ #fertilityawareness #fertilityawarenessweek #preconceptionhealth #fertilitysupport #fertilityjourney #ttccommunity #ttcsupport #tryingtoconceive #naturalfertility #eggquality #victoriabccanada #victoriabc #victoriabuzz #yyjhealth #yyjbusiness #victoriahealth #yyj #naturopathicmedicine #naturopathicdoctor #naturopathy #naturopathic #holistichealthcare #doctorsofinstagram #doctorslife #doctorsofig

This past week has been a very hard one (and not just for me!) with the loss of our friend and fellow artist Andrea England. My day job kept me busy during the week, but yesterday I felt a little lost at home and in the studio, not feeling inspired to do anything. So what did I do? I started cleaning and organizing the studio, getting things ready for the @hills_to_shore_artists studio tour happening in just 2 short weeks. I had art cards to put together (envelopes and packaging), framed a few paintings, decided on some of the paintings to bring with me for the tour, painting inventory, etcโฆ And the more time I spent doing little things, the better I felt and the more inspired I became. Late in the afternoon I started painting and immediately was back in the grove. Maybe I was channeling my inner Andrea โค๏ธ. Today is mostly a house-cleaning day as we are having guests over, so likely not a lot of time spent painting today. But I am thankful for the painting time I had yesterday. #imissmyfriend #hillstoshorestudiotour #studiotour #yyjarts #yyjart #vancouverislandartist #vanisleart #bcart #bcartists #shoplocalyyj #yyjstudiotour #victoriaartgallery #supportlocalbc #bchandmade #explorevancouverisland #victoriabuzz #harbourliving #hillstoshorearitsttour

Okay, okay... THIS is the last of my content for #CIBD2024, I promise. It's not enough for me to just visit my favourite bookstores constantly and always violate my self-imposed book bans - I must also be able to take the bookstores home with me! And that's why I have postcard art of all 3 bookstores: Russell Books, Bastion Books, and Munro's Books. (There are two of Russell's - the colorful one is of the old location, the top left is of the new!) And ofc, they're all pieces done by local artists. It brings me so much joy to have these pieces overlooking my window ledge fairy garden. I genuinely cannot tell y'all enough how important it is to seek out and actively support #independentbookstores, especially now when we are all becoming more conscious consumers. With all of us committed to #BDS for Palestine, rejecting any and all companies that provide support to the genocidal Zionist entity, finding bookstores that share our values and bring true richness to our communities and bookshelves is more important than ever. What are your favourite local indie bookstores? #canadianindependentbookstoreday #bookish #Bookstagram #books #bookstores #localbusiness #supportlocal #shoplocal #bookishmerch #bookmerch #bookshops #bookshopsofinstagram #bookstoresofinstagram #yyj #VictoriaBuzz #VictoriaBC #supportsmallbusiness #MunrosBooks #RussellBooks #BastionBooks
Oh come on, you really think two bookstores are enough to highlight on #CIBD2024??? HELL NO. Presenting my third favorite #independentbookstore in Victoria: Munro's Books! Munro's is iconic in Victoria: set in a historic building that used to be Victoria's bank, with stunning high, detailed ceilings and the children's book section located in what used to be the bank's vault. Munro's is another childhood favourite... my aunt would take my siblings and I on downtown outings, ending with a hot chocolate at Murchie's next door and a bookish treat in hand from Munro's. And I could never forget the sheer excitement of being at Munro's for the launch date of Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire! It was peak Potter-mania era, and I was thoroughly part of it. (They were even giving out wands at Munro's... which I kept for years lol) I especially love that Munro's made a point of highlighting Palestinian voices back in November, far sooner than most people were acknowledging the genocide in Palestine. I regret not taking pictures, but it had moved me deeply to see the "Palestinian voices" signs along the shelves at Munro's. Yet another reason to celebrate #independentbookstores that don't fund genocide! Munro's is charming, has a fantastic selection of #diversebooks, and a book merch collection extraordinaire... and will always remain one of my favourite local independent bookstores in Victoria. (Swipe to find the gorgeous bookish postcard featuring Hafsa Faizal and Sabaa Tahir's titles!!!) #CIBD2024 #canadianindependentbookstoreday #bookish #Bookstagram #books #bookstores #localbusiness #supportlocal #shoplocal #bookishmerch #bookmerch #bookshops #bookshopsofinstagram #bookstoresofinstagram #yyj #VictoriaBuzz #VictoriaBC #supportsmallbusiness #MunrosBooks

๐ฟOrganic Fertilizer and Neem Oil from @kelpyplants We feed our plants every 2 weeks to a month with Kelpy fertilizer. We like how it is organic and better for the environment than synthetic fertilizers. Neem oil is a great natural way to eliminate any pests your plants may have. Just dilute it in water and mist it on your leaves when you see any sign of insects.

3 reasons why @oeb_breakfast is the perfect kid friendly breakfast spot. 1. Kids menu with classics (see 2nd picture for menu) 2. Quick, well-executed service means your kids can get their food quickly and hopefully some of those hangry tears can be avoided. 3. Booster seats and high chairs! Plus farm-to-table is their practice and they have partnered with local farmers right here on the island so you can feel good supporting your local economy and reducing carbon emissions!

NORMAN / BLIZARD RESIDENCE 1836 Feltham Road Stephen & Lizzie Norman, Owners; 1893 George Blizard, Owner & Architect, addition; 1903 Stephen Norman (1861-1925), a carpenter and caretaker for the Parliament Buildings, likely built the right-hand portion of this house. The original farmhouse is a vernacular one-and-one-half storey structure, clad with wooden drop siding and fish-scale shingles in the gable. Stephen was married to Lizzie (nรฉe Burns, 1859-1914) in 1891. A later owner, George Blizard, a fruit farmer and British trained architect, added the hipped-roof portion of the house in 1903. The addition is symmetrical, with wooden drop siding and a shallow hipped roof over the front verandah. #saanich #saanichheritagefoundation #saanichhf #heritage #saanicharchives #history #britishcolumbia #schoolhouse #conservation #restoration #protectheritage #Architecturalheritage #heritagebc #historicarchitecture #historicplaces #shf #victoriabc #victoriabuzz #architecture
