Embark on a journey through the heart of Prince Edward Island and along the coast to meet some of the producers and providers of the island's innovative culinary treasures. At Island Hill Farm, you'll be treated to savory goat products, a tour, a meet-and-greet with the animals and a chance to shop. Make your way to the north shore and meet a champion oyster shucker, Phyllis Carr of Carr's Oyster Bar. Try to shuck your own oyster then enjoy some oysters and a small cup of chowder. Your next destination is a lavender farm where honey is turned into a delightful mead wine. Finally, learn how a u-pick apple orchard transformed into an award-winning craft distillery with a stop at Deep Roots Distillery. Sample three delicious Island-made products some of which have recently been awarded a Gold and Silver medal by Artisan Distillers Canada in its 2019 Canadian Artisan Spirit competition. Once you've completed your epicurean journey, you'll board the coach and return to your ship.
