Flavours to Savour at Home

Stock your pantry with local food from Pictou County on Nova Scotia’s Northumberland Shore.

A Harvest Gathered from Land and Sea

The Freshest Way to Experience Pictou County

In Pictou County, eating local is part of everyday life. From the Northumberland Strait to the fields and farms inland, you will find ingredients and small-batch goods made close to the source and worth taking home.

Shop farmers’ markets and local stores for seasonal produce, baked goods, preserves, honey, and locally made treats. If seafood is on your list, look for lobster and other Strait favourites when the season is right. Come for the flavours, stay for the conversations with the growers and makers who keep this place fed.

Pro Tip

The Ultimate Coastal Picnic

Planning a day at Melmerby Beach? Stop by the market or a local producer first to build a 100% local picnic. Pair a box of shortbread with a wedge of cheese, some fresh local fruit, and a local beverage. It’s a meal that tastes exactly like a Maritime escape.
