FROM THE EXECUTIVE EDITOR
Welcome
Welcome to the first-ever issue of PEI Living – we hope you’re as excited about it as we are! With this magazine, it’s our mission to highlight the many small businesses found throughout the community – businesses that not only provide valuable jobs, but also contribute to a local sense of identity; provide diverse, locally-made products and services; improve the local economy; and deliver personalized customer service. I could go on and on about the positive impact small businesses have, but I have limited space for this column! The point is, with all the challenges so many small business owners are facing these days, it’s important that we help them – and that starts with taking part in the “shop local” movement. We hope that by reading this magazine, you’ll discover a few local gems you didn’t even know existed; there’s so much to discover and enjoy! Alongside these business features, you’ll also find exciting articles on Prince Edward Island, recipes for delicious and healthy smoothies (perfect for those mornings when you’re rushing to get out the door!), tips for growing an urban garden, and the lowdown on craft beer. You’ll also learn about the various types of yoga and how to organize your home office so you can maximize productivity. Before I let you get to reading, I’d like to take this moment to extend heartfelt congratulations to Jacqui Lysko, the publisher behind PEI Living. We’ve worked together for many years, and during that time, we faced endless challenges and successes. As she begins this new venture on her own, I wish her nothing but the best.
