Off the Main Grid is a space for sharing experiences, discovering new places and connecting with people who appreciate small-town Ontario.
I want this blog and its social media pages to be welcoming, respectful and enjoyable for everyone. Whether you’re leaving a comment, sharing a recommendation or joining a conversation, please keep the following guidelines in mind.
The Dos
- Be respectful. Everyone is welcome to share their opinions and experiences, even when they differ from someone else’s.
- Share your recommendations. Know a great local business, event or hidden gem? I’d love to hear about it!
- Give credit. If you’re sharing someone else’s photographs, ideas or content, make sure you credit the original creator and have permission when needed.
- Keep conversations friendly. Questions, suggestions and constructive feedback are always welcome.
- Support local. Help celebrate the businesses, people and communities that make small-town Ontario special.
The Don’ts
- No bullying or harassment. Hurtful, discriminatory or threatening comments will not be tolerated.
- No spam or unrelated promotions. Please avoid posting advertisements, repetitive comments or irrelevant links.
- Don’t share private information. Respect other people’s privacy and avoid posting personal details without permission.
- Don’t use content without permission. Photographs and original writing should not be copied or reposted without proper credit and authorization.
- Don’t spread misinformation. Please avoid sharing information about businesses, events or individuals that you cannot verify.
Content and Partnerships
The opinions and experiences shared on Off the Main Grid are my own. If I ever receive a gifted product, complimentary experience or paid partnership, I will clearly disclose that relationship.
I aim to share accurate information, but business hours, events and other details can change. Readers are encouraged to check directly with businesses before visiting.

Let’s Keep Exploring!
I appreciate everyone who takes the time to read, comment and share their experiences. My goal is to create a positive community where we can discover new places and support small-town Ontario together.
Comments that violate these guidelines may be removed to keep the space respectful and welcoming.
