On today’s show, a crew of volunteers planted new pollinator gardens on Bridge Street in Sackville on Wednesday morning. CHMA stopped by and spoke with volunteers Sarah Evans, Christie MacFadyen, and Anthony William Jeremiah MacLean, as well as Matt Pryde and Jamie Ferguson from Tantramar’s Active Living and Culture department. The new gardens are part of a collaboration between the Sackville Community Garden, Open Sky Cooperative, and the municipality.

  • Police say a woman who was reported missing from Taylor Village on Tuesday was found deceased on Wednesday, but they do not suspect any foul play.
  • Tantramar mayor Andrew Black reports back to council on a May workshop in Amherst hosted by the Chignecto Isthmus Resiliency Project.
