Crabapple Love
|
The crabapple trees lining the main street of Pemberton produce a beautiful flower show in the spring, and abundant, ruby red fruit later in the summer. These historical trees were planted in honour and memory of local community members, though the fruit has been a major bear attractant over the years. Unfortunately, this resulted in high levels of human-bear conflict. Stewardship Pemberton Society was eager to find a solution that saved the trees and the bears. The Crabapple Project was born. What began as an educational experience for local children in a home kitchen evolved into a project that sees all the fruit picked and made into jelly in the community kitchen. Resultantly, this project has mitigated human-bear conflict while producing a beautiful edible product of yesteryear. |
DiMarco’s Fresh Pasta
|
This fresh pasta business would provide an easy, quick, healthy and affordable meal option. All of the products would be made in-house with organic and seasonal ingredients. I would try to buy local ingredients first, or source them from as close as possible. I would use compostable containers and packaging. Producing a quality product/service that meet the demands of like minded people in Pemberton. |
Hunter’s Harvest

Pemberton Community Abattoir
|
I would like to champion, investigate, develop, and ultimately establish a local community abattoir. Safe, Humane, Local option for local farmers and producers to process their animals here – avoiding the drive and or shipping of live animals to the interior or lower mainland. Lower carbon footprint, less stress on the animals, less time and expense in shipping and travel, keeping the facility local = local $$ stay in the community |
