- We would like to give credit
to a fantastic local Parksville business, Buckerfield's.
Andrew and Barb do so much
for the North Island Wildlife Recovery Center,
and we can't thank them enough.

This is Andrew,
he's the owner of Buckerfield's here in Parksville,
and he's been helping NIWRA for a very long time.
What prompted you to first start helping us,
and get involved?
- At Buckerfield's here we've been involved with NIRWA
for quite a number of years,
and I think we have a lot of similarities
in that a lot of the people that come into the center
are interested in the same animals
that you'd be dealing with at the wildlife center.
We have customers that are passionate
about anything from say a rabbit or a guinea pig,
all the way through to cats and dogs,
and even up to wild birds,
so we have a unique fit there
that we have between the two organizations.
- We really appreciate
the support you've given to the center,
and everything we've got, from big tents for our events,
sponsoring an ad in the PQB News on our behalf,
and also donating food for the animals.
So the next time you're looking for that something special
for you're home, you're yard, or even you're pet.
- Shop local at Buckerfield's, located in Parksville
on the Alberni Highway.
