On today’s show, reporter Clinton Davis visits a small Dorchester farm to find out how late is too late to plant your summer vegetable garden… Hint: it’s still not too late. Willow Farm owners Tessa Kautzman and Gregory Burton are selling seedlings throughout June, available at their farm stand or the Sackville Farmers Market.

Plus in briefs:

  • Correctional Service Canada says it put the Dorchester Penitentiary medium security unit on lockdown on Monday to conduct “an exceptional search”.
  • A local developer has requested a change to the town of Sackville planning bylaw, which impacts the size of lots required on either end of row-house or townhouse developments, or what Plan 360 calls “vertically attached dwelling units”.
