In a large bowl, use your hands to combine the ground pork, chorizo, bacon, shallot mixture, and parsley, being careful not to overmix the meat.

FAVOURITE FARM MARKET
The Farmer and the Foodie We often get asked how our business began, and the simple answer is hog farming. Rob’s father, always a farmer at heart, started the hog operation in the 1970s and the day of Rob’s high school graduation was the start of his farming career. While always proud to be a BC Pork producer, Lepp Farm Market was born from the dream of bringing our farmed products directly to the public as we saw the interest in purchasing local food and supporting BC agriculture increase. The pork we feature at Lepp Farm Market is from pigs raised on Lepp Farms directly behind the market. The animals enjoy spacious pens, an all-vegetable diet, are not given routinely administered antibiotics, and as all pork raised in Canada — there’s no administration of growth hormones. These days, there are only 15 pork producers remaining in our province, who can supply only about 10% of
BC’s pork needs. So wherever you shop, be sure to look for the BC Pork logo and support the dedicated BC farmers who are proudly growing a high-quality product close to home! This month’s recipe ecipe is a triple play of delicious cious pork — ground, d, chorizo sausage, and bacon, which means Go to: the incredible w leppfa ww. flavour is built rmm right into the .com arket burger pattie, not just from all the extras on the bun.

HOME LIFE
Complete these home improvements over the weekend Large-scale renovations can greatly affect a home, but smaller projects can yield impressive results and be completed over the course of a single weekend. If time is of the essence, these weekend or one-day projects may satisfy homeowners’ desires to fix up their homes. • Create an accent wall. Painting a focal wall in a home can create a serious impact. The bonus is it will not take as long or require as many materials as painting an entire room. Accent walls frequently feature a bold colour, so decide on placement and tackle this project in less than a day. • Install stair runners. Dress up hardwood stairs with decorative carpet runners. Runners come in elongated pieces of carpeting or individual pieces that can be placed on each step. • Dress up the entryway. An entryway
is a guest’s first impression of a home. Many entryways can use a minor overhaul, both inside and outside. Paint the front door a different colour so it pops from the curb. Install a new mailbox or decorative house numbers. A new welcome mat can change the look as well. Inside, consider laying a new floor. Resilient vinyl tiles come in many different patterns and can mimic the look of wood, travertine or marble. Installing a floor can take a day or two. • Install a new faucet. Instantly improve a kitchen or a bathroom with new fixtures. New faucets can provide aesthetic appeal and low-flow faucets can help conserve water. • Create a gallery on the staircase. Gather and arrange framed photos, artwork or wall accents so that they ascend the wall of a staircase. This creates a designer touch and can dress up an often barren area of wall space.
• Install a fresh light fixture. Improve drab spaces with a little illumination. If hanging a new fixture is not within one’s skill set, free-standing table or floor lamps also can cast a new glow on a space. • Add molding. Molding can add instant aesthetic appeal to a room. Molding is appropriate near the floor, at the top of walls where they meet the ceiling, or even mid-wall as a chair rail. Some homeowners like to create framed molding on walls in formal living spaces. • Update kitchen or bathroom hardware. Replacing hardware is a fast and easy project, but one that can have immediate impact. Swap out tired or outdated hardware for newer brushed metals and more impactful shapes and designs. Home renovations do not need to take weeks or months. Many projects can be completed over the course of a weekend.

HEALTH
MATTERS
Natural ways to fight fall allergies Leaves are a known cause of fall allergies. Raking them can stir up mold and pollen. As the days become shorter and the weather cools down, a new crop of allergy symptoms can arise, turning the autumn season into one marked by sneezing, scratchy throats and itchy eyes. Medications can alleviate such symptoms, but allergy sufferers can also take advantage of some natural ways to beat allergies.
how to beat the fall allergy blues. · Stay away from pollen. Stay away from pollen and prevent it from being tracked indoors. Remove shoes when walking through the door. Take off clothes worn outside and launder them promptly, showering to wash pollen off of the body. Use an air conditioner or keep windows closed when the pollen count is high.
Ragweed is one of the more common triggers of autumnal allergies. Other sources of fall allergies include leaf mold and pollen that is present on fallen leaves. This gets circulated when people begin to rake or blow fallen leaves. Classroom pets and chalk dust in schools (although chalkboards are largely a thing of the past) are other autumn allergens.
· Increase omega-3 fatty acids. It is well documented that fatty acids are good for brain health and cardiovascular well-being. But these acids also may help with allergies. A German study linked foods high in omega-3 fatty acids with the ability to fight inflammation, which is a hallmark of allergy suffering. Foods that are high in fatty acids include walnuts, flax, eggs, and cold-water fatty fish.
The good news is that many natural remedies work just as effectively as over-thecounter medications in regard to combatting ragweed and pollen problems. Here’s
· Rinse off pollen. Use a mild cleanser to rinse the eyelids and eyelashes of pollen, as this is where it tends to congregate after being outdoors. Use saline spray to

clear nasal passages of excess pollen as well.
Presented by:
· Take natural supplements. A study published in the journal Clinical and Experimental Allergy found participants who used tablets of the herb butterbar showed significant allergy relief after only one week. Select herbs from reputable manufacturers who certify them. · Use eucalyptus oil. This oil is great to have in the house to help clear up sinuses and provide nasal congestion relief. Mix a small amount with coconut oil and rub onto the chest. There also is some evidence that adding a few drops of eucalyptus oil to cleansing products can help kill dust mites around the house. · Wear a mask. When doing housework or yard work, wear a mask to reduce the inhalation of specific allergens. Avoid seasonal allergies by exploring natural ways to find prevention or relief of symptoms.

Your investment questions answered!
Ask those questions you’ve always wondered about at free Oct. 11 session “Should I invest with you or in real estate?” “How can insurance products help my financial portfolio or tax strategy?” “Can I afford to retire? How do I avoid outliving my retirement savings?” If you have a question you’ve always wanted to ask about finances, estate or wealth management, chances are many others wonder the exact same thing! It’s just these kinds of questions – your questions – Abbotsford wealth advisor Cindy Boury will field during her free fall information session Oct. 11. “Often people have similar questions, such as the difference between a wealth advisor, financial planner and mutual fund specialist, or how to read their statements fully,” says Cindy, of Cindy Boury Private Wealth Management. “We’ll ask guests to submit any question they have when they RSVP to the session, then we will answer their questions at the event, (or before if it’s something more specific). Even if you’re not comfortable asking your questions
publicly, you’ll get your questions answered.” THE POWER OF EDUCATION The information session is part of Cindy’s longstanding focus on education – it’s how she’s built her practice over 20 years and how she builds her relationships with clients. It’s also why her team includes six people with skills that complement her own – such as expertise in research and insurance, for example. “For those who may be curious about us and what we do, this event is a chance to get to know me and my team. It also lets us share an overview of the year, how the portfolios are doing, what we might expect in the months ahead,” says Cindy. DO I NEED A WEALTH ADVISOR? Offering far more than retirement planning, a wealth advisor can call upon diverse knowledge and expertise to build and preserve wealth: build your investment portfolio; design a personal or company trust for strategic purposes; tax management; insurance needs and coverage; and estate planning. Revisit your retirement plan during a major life change, such as a marriage or retirement, and
whenever you have questions about reviewing and re-structuring your current financial plans and goals. A common misconception is that clients must have significant assets to warrant an advisor, but Cindy believes everyone can benefit from planning for future goals and how to achieve them. Because of her team’s breadth of expertise, they can help chart a course that may include areas a client hasn’t considered. “This session is great for anyone who thinks, ‘Do I need a financial advisor? Should I have one?’” says Cindy, emphasizing the free session is open to everyone – clients and non-clients alike. RESERVE YOUR SEAT Space is limited in this educational presentation Thursday, October 11, 2018 – those wanting to learn more about Cindy Boury Private Wealth Management are urged to RSVP to the Raymond James office, Garden Street at 604-855-0654 or email sheryl.boury@raymondjames.ca. Enjoy light refreshments after the presentation, and a chance to meet Cindy and her team. ***
