Hi! I'm Helena. I've had the honour of owning the Backroads since June of 2022.
My family and I moved to Apsley in 2018 and by the end of the following year, I was writing a monthly column in the Backroads called Thrive or Survive, Being Your Best Family.
It's a dream realized to be a Magazine Publisher - something I've wanted to do since my early 20's. I've spent the bulk of my career helping families have better Birth experiences as a Doula and Prenatal Educator and for the past Five years helped to manage a local construction company. I'm a country girl at heart, love baking sourdough bread and prefer a record player over a music app. I think my 3 kids are amazing, my dog is pretty cute and nothing warms my heart more than knowing how much this magazine is loved by our community.

Since 2015, readers have enjoyed community stories and local advertisers showing up at their doorstep each and every month. Founded by Judith Lean, it has always been our goal to create a magazine that takes you on a tour along the backroads of North Kawartha, forcing you to slow down and dive into everything local. Community events, local business advertising and faithful contributors sharing thoughtful stories and the history of our community.
SLOW DOWN.
