ADAMS & KNICKLE
“In Nova Scotia's South Shore community of Lunenburg, you can tell the buildings belonging to the Adams and Knickle fishing business by their hey-look-at-me shade of red. Identified by the town's paint suppliers simply as "A and K red," it's as recognizable a trademark as, say, McDonald's golden arches, albeit on a smaller scale. Indeed, when the firm repainted one of its buildings a year or so ago, some local residents mistook a coat of pink primer for the finished job and nearly marched in protest. Over the last decade or so, the drop in the number of deep-sea vessels had rendered the marine-supply side of the business uneconomical – the premises were kept open, though, to sell scallops to the public. Says Jane Adams Ritcey, granddaughter of cofounder Harry Adams and the firm's current president: "The people of Lunenburg have been buying scallops fresh off the boat from Adams and Knickle for more than 50 years, and I think they have a right to expect that to continue.“

VICTOR GREEK'S MEAT MARKET
Victor Greek, “the founder” born in Blue Rocks Lunenburg County, N.S., first made pudding and sausage at the age of 11 while working for his uncle in Lunenburg in 1930. In the 1940’s he started to produce his particular brand of pudding and sausages in his own store on Dutch Village Road, Halifax. He continued to make them after moving to Bridgewater in 1949, while working for several stores in the area. In 1975 the company “Lunenburg Pudding & Sausage Ltd.” was incorporated and has been operating from its present location, at 276A St. Phillips Street, Bridgewater, since then. Victor (Dad) passed his secret recipes on to me (his son Richard) who carries on his tradition of producing only high quality home-made style products to this day. We at Greek’s pride ourselves in using only high quality ingredients in keeping with the aim of offering a product reminiscent of those prepared in the kitchens of Lunenburg County for many generations. -
TATAMAGOUCHE OYSTERS & BAY ENTERPRISES
Bay Enterprises Limited is a family owned business that has been involved in the oyster industry in Malagash, Nova Scotia, Canada since the 1890's.
We take great pride in our oysters and believe them to be among the world's very best. They are grown in the pure waters of Malagash Basin and Tatamagouche Bay.
Here’s a bit more about our Tatamagouche (Crassostrea virginica) oysters…Not so coincidentally, our Tatamagouche oysters are grown out in Tatamagouche Bay, Nova Scotia (N 45.35/W 63.17). A little cultural background…The word “Tatamagouche” is derived from the Mi’kmaq (MicMac) word “Takumegooch”, which in the native tongue translates to “meeting of the waters” (the southern end of Tatamagouche Bay is created by the mouths of the French and Waugh rivers). This brackish estuary is situated across the Northumberland Strait from Prince Edward Island, and serves as an ideal location for the grow-out of oysters. Now then…What is it about our Tatamagouche oysters that make them so exceptional? Perhaps the most extraordinary attribute of the Tatamagouche is the fact that they are left very much to their own devices during their grow-out. That is to say…No chipping, manicuring, shaping, or any sort of manipulation takes place over the three to four years it takes for the Tats to reach market size. So what does this mean to you? I’m glad you asked. As the Tats have never been chipped, their valves (shells) are absolutely congruous (who says you never use geometry?). A watertight seal is created by the valves, thereby locking in the precious liquor. This ability to retain this brine so effectively is not unique to the Tatamagouche, but it is exceptional in this day and age of complex aquaculture. -

VANDYK'S BLUEBERRY JUICE
Van Dyk's Health Juice Products Limited is an innovative thriving family business with a passion to produce the highest quality health juice products in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner
Van Dyk's Health Juice Products Ltd. is a family run business based in Caledonia, Nova Scotia, Canada. It produces an all-natural 100% pure wild blueberry juice made from locally grown wild blueberries. During the late 1960's the Van Dyk family became interested in developing a wild blueberry industry in rural Queens County, Nova Scotia. Fields with as little as 10% wild blueberry coverage were developed from old abandoned farms. Today these fields are covered with wild blueberry plants and have become an economic resource for this part of rural Nova Scotia.
The 100% pure wild blueberry juice product concept had been in Casey Van Dyk's mind for quite some time, given his familiarity with bilberries and the success of bilberry juice as a health drink in Europe. This coupled with the increased consumer awareness of the potential health benefits of wild blueberries resulted in the development of Van Dyk's 100% Pure Wild Blueberry Juice. We along with many of our customers think it is the best tasting blueberry juice on earth! -

KINGS PRODUCE
Perhaps there is something in the mist that swirls in from the Bay of Fundy. Or it might be the extra hours of sunshine we get here in the Annapolis Valley every year. But something gives our fruit and vegetables a very special flavour - a flavour you can taste.
In 1984, six growers in Nova Scotia’s Eastern Kings County pooled their marketing efforts and Kings Produce was born. Since then, a hard working group of farmers has continued to cultivate new ideas for the production and post harvest handling of a wide array of vegetables destined for regional, national and international markets.
