1. Jacque LaFreniere, "Fresh Produce at Farmer's Market 8/7," Beaver Island Forum, August 6, 2014.
   A first-party seasonal notice advertised island-grown beans, kale, lettuce, radishes, onions, and zucchini at a Thursday morning farmers-market sale. It documents one offering and date, not the full market or the farm source for every item.

2. Beaver Island Gardens, "Spring has Sprung at Beaver Island Gardens," Beaver Island Forum, May 16, 2014.
   The operator advertised daily greenhouse hours, seasonal color despite the cold, and bread and zucchini salsa for sale. This is a first-party seasonal operating notice, not a complete inventory, sales record, or proof of continuing hours.

3. Beaver Island Gardens, "Beaver Island Gardens is now open for the season," Beaver Island Forum, May 20, 2011.
   The operator announced that the greenhouses were open for the season with plants and products and gave hours of Tuesday through Saturday, 11–5. This first-party operating notice does not establish the full season, sales, or current status.

4. Beaver Island Gardens, "Beaver Island Gardens Has Moved," Beaver Island Forum, June 30, 2010.
   The operator later announced the new location as 34644 Buff Kett Road and described the route from Slop Town Road. This first-party notice supports the Beacon directory address and suggests the earlier 26801 Paid Een Ogs Road notices describe the prior location or an earlier address; it does not establish parcel geometry or the exact move date.

5. Beaver Island Gardens, "Happy Gardening 2010," Beaver Island Forum, May 4, 2010.
   The operator announced the 2010 season, described annuals, perennials, tomatoes, and island-grown vegetables, and gave the address as 26801 Paid Een Ogs Road. This conflicts with the 34644 Buff Kett Road address in the Beacon directory; both source claims are retained rather than reconciled by inference.

   The operator notices preserve seasonal hours, plant and produce offerings, a 26801 Paid Een Ogs Road address, and prices for plants, shrubs, grape juice, lettuce, radishes, and asparagus. These are first-party commercial notices, not sales ledgers or proof of continued operation.
