Judy Tait, who started her career in textiles, now produces some of the best pottery in eastern New Brunswick. Nestled on the Bay of Fundy, Judy is inspired by her surroundings, the local community and the unique clay that is naturally produced here. 

Birder

Any avid birder will record an encounter with Jim Wilson as a hobby highlight. He’s been around the world seeking out birds and will share with you why New Brunswick is one of the best places to view such an array of rare wildlife and where to find the hotspots that even attracted Audubon.
