Green Gables Vines
A local couple with a passion for winemaking is transforming a vineyard into a destination meeting place.
Green Gables Vines owner Marie Chinnatamby and winemaker Richard Deslandes are pleased to be offering an exciting selection of white, rosé, off-dry, dry red and fruit-flavoured wines at the winery.
"This is a lot of fun," says Richard, who has been crafting with care new blends from the five-acre vineyard. "People seem to want to taste local wines and buy local," he says.
"We chose to offer an organic, high-quality product even when it means a lower production volume. There are no herbicides or pesticides used to produce our wines. We accept a few more weeds to get better, healthier wine," says Richard.

Municipal World
Who said there was only one?
Since
Municipal World first took its municipal career opportunities online more than 20 years ago, its Job Board has had a singular, laser-like focus: sharing municipal jobs. Today, the Municipal World Job Board is a flexible, full-featured platform that is trusted by municipal recruiters across Canada. And, it's been designed and proven effective for municipalities of all sizes.
In Municipal World's years of experience working alongside municipalities and our municipal association partners, integrity and transparency have always been paramount. We know there is no room for false claims or empty platitudes. It's this clarity of purpose that helps us consistently deliver on what we promise, and it's what separates us in the marketplace. That's why municipalities across Canada rely on the Municipal World Job Board to find and engage the best talent.
Certainly, you'll never hear us suggest that there's only one job posting and recruiting platform devoted to municipal jobs. Hardly. But, there is only one that carries the Municipal World commitment and track record. And you can only find it on
municipalworld.com.
We're proud of what we do and how we do it - and we're especially proud of the Municipal Career stories that start at Municipal World.
