Minor Peewee Stars Win Orillia Winter Classic
The Minor Peewee Williams Funeral Home Jr Stars endured a long weekend and came home champions of the Orillia Winter Classic on the weekend.  The tournament started Friday night with a 3-1 win over North Toronto.  Saturday morning the Stars had to face the host team from Orillia.  Playing one of their best games in weeks they were all over the Terriers from the start and prevailed 7-2.  Saturday night brought on a tough game against Grimsby.  The Stars started strong but fell apart and took a tough 6-0 defeat.

Despite the bad loss, the Stars advanced to the semi finals to play the team from North Toronto again.  A sluggish start to the game found the Stars down 1-0 midway through the first.  A light suddenly went on and the Stars cruised to a 8-1 win and a shot at redemption against Grimsby in the finals.  The Stars came out flying from the start and built a 2-0 lead.  Despite mounting pressure from a determined Grimsby team, the Stars held on for 3-2 win.

Congratulations Stars, hard work and consistent effort paid off!!!!!!

Picard's Peanuts
For more than three decades, families and friends have come from miles around for the fresh roasted peanuts and specialty confectionery products at the Original Picard’s retail outlets The home of the Canadian peanuts, Picard’s is owned and operated by the remaining Picard family members, John & sister Renee, who have been with the business since inception. The unique products were created by John Picard to add a diversity of products starting with Ontario peanuts and then to value-enhanced snack products. In the following years, unique products made with the finest chocolates, unique snacks like our “Crispy Potato Chip Covered Peanuts" and now our farm fresh Kettle Chips are all unique to Picard’s and are only found in the Original Picard’s stores – St.Jacobs, Talbotville, Waterdown, Niagara-on-the-Lake and Waterford. (With the sale of Picard Peanuts stores in Simcoe, Morriston, Fonthill and Woodstock – our original products are no longer available in these 4 locations.) We process over a half-million pounds of quality Jumbo Cocktail, Extra Fancy Virginia, Spanish, Ontario grown Valencia peanuts and other specialty nuts. Peanut seeds are planted in May and by June small yellow flowers can be seen signalling a bountiful crop. The plants may be irrigated to reduce stress and encourage secondary flowering and peg setting. Yes, peanuts start to grow from the pollinated flowers above the ground attached to pegs that penetrate the soil and form the peanut underground. In late September, mature plants are dug up and left in the sun to partially dry. Combines pick up the sun-dried peanuts and remove them from their vines. Peanuts are washed, sorted and placed in wagons to be dried for storage. When completely dry the peanuts are graded and placed in cold storage until they are ready to be processed. Our peanuts are roasted weekly in order to deliver the freshest taste in every bite Corner of Hwy 3 & Hwy 4, Talbotville, Ontario N0L 2L0 (519)637-8704
