…and NeemTree knife and axe sharpening.
We’re back! Wednesday market until 1 p.m.
July 15, 2026. Blackdog Biscuits can’t be at the harbour market today.
The Tobermory Marketplace is a fantastic venue and we really wanted to be there today. However, the poor air quality makes us setting up in the heat and smoke a risky adventure for us.
Our monitor’s purple light emitting diodes signal too many floating particles in the air column. The dawn outside our home is also a green-brown hue. Yeahhhhhhh, we can’t sling dog & cat treats during this extreme weather (atmospheric conditions) event. We’ll reschedule for NEXT WEDNESDAY, 10 A.M. UNTIL 1 P.M., JULY 22ND.
YOU CAN ALWAYS TEXT-CALL US AT 226-923-2968 IF YOU’D LIKE TO DROP BY AND BUY BISCUITS. WE ARE LOCATED ABOUT 15 MINUTES AWAY FROM THE HIGHWAY (DYERS BAY ROAD, ON-6 TURN-OFF). OR, WE CAN MEET YOU AT THE PARKING LOT BY DYERS BAY ROAD. CALL AHEAD TO NEGOTIATE TERMS, EH.

What villain actually had a good point?
…come by the harbour and shop around. NeemTree’s also available for knife sharpening services (1 week turn-around).
No gauntlets nor infinity stones in sight!
Visitors! Who enjoyed blackdogbiscuits…
Mindful breathing, cognitive behavioural therapeutic tools. Oh, and buying biscuits!
What’s the best way to deal with negative thoughts?
I appreciate the brave souls who persevered the heat and visited the event.
Today’s market experienced +41C humidex conditions. Gusting winds. And overheating patrons. We enjoyed the event and are REALLY glad to be recovering in our (Evolve Builders Grp. [Guelph]) strawbale home in the forest. Cooks, your Mitsubishi heat-pump is providing cooling relief!
Carnivorous skunk cabbage. Thankfully, biscuits are…
What’s something you used to believe as a kid that seems ridiculous now?
…for sale at the Owen Sound Farmer’s Market. My childhood fear of west coast, British Columbian Lysichiton americanus was odd. They just looked like they attracted flies for consumption. They here was a memorable Scientific American article about the plant. It has heat generating tissue thet allows it to poke through spring snow and attract its pollinators. Flying insects! Hell, according to the forbidden website of knowledge (wikipedia link here), bears eat it as a natural laxative post hibernation.
In the meantime, drop by the market to pick up animal treats.

What personal belongings do you hold most dear?
It’s warmer in Tobermory…
…compared to last week. Sunny too! Come and visit our marketplace, until 1 p.m. and then meander the teat of our local community. May 20, 2026.
This is a new product. It’s based on what cats would eat if they were eating rodents out in the wild. It’s fascinatingly gruesome. Ask us about it.
What’s happening in Wiarton, Ontario? May 16/26.
