Overview

If there is a national holiday coming up, it’s a good idea to consider if Fellow is open to receive a sample or not, before you start planning to collect your sample.

Should you be aiming to produce a sample around the time of a national, federal holiday, Fellow recommends waiting (if at all possible) until after the holiday has passed.

  • Monday, October 14 - Indigenous Peoples’ Day
