March is Pharmacy Appreciation Month! This is a throw back pic when masks weren't mandatory yet and we can see each other smile. During unprecedented challenges over the past year, pharmacists across Canada stepped up to be there for their patients. Our store is grateful for our amazing pharmacy team that has worked so hard to serve our community and keep patients and staff safe. Seriously, a huge thank you to Fatima and her crew. I know they work tirelessly to make sure eve...ryone gets their prescriptions safely and on time. If you're in the store, say hello to the team. It would mean so much. <3 Kristy Yee, Dietitian at Your Independent Grocer
