paddle,” says Jarrod. “After paddling, our guests get a chance to actively participate in the preparation of the lunch and get to learn how to shuck oysters and prepare shellfish.” The Gunn McQuillans are excited to partner with other like-minded Islanders who are dedicated to local food production and culinary experiences. For example, the Oyster Lovers Kayak Experience is a partnership with Raspberry Point Oyster Co. where people are allowed to paddle through their active oyster leases, learn about oysters through hands-on experiences, and taste oysters. Outdoor activities are common on PEI, but this summer they have been especially popular because of COVID-19. “When it comes to practicing ‘Safe Six,’ there’s no better place to do so than from the seat of a kayak. Social distancing is only natural when paddling. Additionally, getting outside and being in nature is good for you,” says Heather. “It’s pretty much the perfect activity for this summer!” In the coming months, Jarrod and Heather will have even more to offer at their property in St. Peters Harbour. “Our year-round glamping resort is set
to open later this fall, and we will have packages available that include unique accommodations, private hot tubs, and our nature-based experiences, including some new ones for the fall and winter season,” says Jarrod. Heather and Jarrod are excited to continue to grow their business on PEI. “We are filled with so much gratitude!” says Heather. “We have been overwhelmed by the support of our neighbours, our community and the province. We hope that as we build and grow Nature Space Eco Resort, we can reciprocate the spirit of generosity and community.”
