Dear editor:

A year ago, on the opening day of the TASC Tulip Pick Farm on Line 3 Road, in NOTL, heavy rain and mud forced the owners to close their parking lot. The result was a traffic jam from Concession 2 down to Four Mile Creek.

An unfortunate beginning for owners Frank Boendermaker and Jill McCourt.

We, and our neighbours on Line 3 and Concession 2, weren’t happy. Frank and Jill readily agreed to a meeting, listened to our concerns, and implemented immediate improvements.

This resulted in this year’s tulip festival going off, from our vantage, without a hitch.

We want to offer our support because Frank and Jill did a great job communicating with us, last year and this year, making changes to improve the traffic flow and eliminate congestion. In short, they have made every effort to be good neighbours.

Further, a business like this, bringing in a host of new visitors, has to be beneficial for the surrounding businesses.

Bruce and Regina Robb
