Words by Story Sheidow

The Island offers such an amazing abundance of food. Our waters are ripe with nutrient-rich dulse, kelp, and sea

mosses, as well as many types of fish, fowl, and crustaceans; sea salt can be harvested, offering healthy doses of minerals from the Atlantic Ocean; our iron-rich soil offers a vast assortment of produce, from potatoes to beans to watermelon; and our forests, fields, and marshlands are home to many berry

varieties, such as blackberries, blueberries, and cranberries.
