On behalf of NACC, we would like to congratulate to Austin Matheson on being nominated and selected amongst all Rookie Water Operators in the province from municipalities and communities. This is the first time a recipient from a Northern Affairs community has ever in the history of the award been recognized and won. Something to be especially proud of. Austin is the son of Chris and Sheryl Matheson ( President NACC). Congratulations Austin you’ve done the north proud, not to mention your parents😊

It is with heavy hearts the we express our deepest sympathy to Tamy and family on the passing of Tim. For us at NACC, Tim is what we would call “ the salt of the earth “ type a guy…genuine, sincere, honest, transparent, and kind. His passion, dedication and commitment to the north was undeniable. Always looking for ways to advance the development of his community. On behalf of the Northern Association of Community Councils Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time. May you find the slightest comfort knowing he is pain free. Rest easy Tim, you will be missed

If you joined the NHFI 'Winter Seed Sowing' online workshop this winter, have we got an update for you!

With a few simple supplies, we created a mini-greenhouse with select cold weather vegetables, frost-tolerant herbs and perennials...and the results are magical!!❄️🌱✨

The 'mini-greenhouse' mimics nature by allowing seeds to experience winter temperatures before sprouting in the spring—no grow lights or indoor seed trays required.

Want to learn more??? Contact Nadine Tonn, NHFI Program Manager at [email protected] for simple steps to get you started year after year.

Picture: Radish and lettuce sprout in their mini-greenhouse where temperatures reach +6C, while outdoor it's just above freezing!
