  • • Articles • Becoming Local
    PAGE 44 • Articles • Becoming Local: The Emerging Craft Beer Industry in Newfoundland, Canada NATALIE DIGNAM Memorial University of Newfoundland Abstract: This article considers the ways craft breweries integrate the local culture of Newfoundland, Canada in their branding, events and even flavors. Between 2016 and 2019, the number of craft breweries in Newfoundland quadrupled. This essay examines how this emerging industry frames craft beer as local through heritage branding that draws on local customs and the island's unique language. At the same time, some breweries embrace their newness by reinterpreting representations of rural Newfoundland. In May of 2017, I moved from Massachusetts to the island of Newfoundland with my husband. "The Rock," as it's nicknamed, part of Canada's easternmost province of Newfoundland and Labrador, is an isolated island of over 155,000 square miles of boreal forest, bluffs and barrens. During that first summer, we were enthralled by the East Coast Trail, a hiking trail that loops around the Avalon Peninsula on the eastern edge of the island. From rocky cliffs, we spotted whales, hawks, icebergs, and seals. We often ate a "feed of fish and chips," as I have heard this popular dish called in Newfoundland. One thing we missed from home were the numerous craft breweries, where we could grab a pint after a day of hiking. We had become accustomed to small, locally-owned breweries throughout New England, operating out of innocuous locations like industrial parks or converted warehouses, where we could try different beers every time we visited. I was disappointed to find a much more limited selection of beer when I moved to Newfoundland.

Learning about our own part of the earth can help us get a better understanding of the world at large. Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page. We hope the characters and the things they learn and talk about also give the reader a better understanding of our province. Above all, we hope this book challenges your curiosity and encourages you to search for more information about our land. Don McDonald Director of Programs and Services Newfoundland and Labrador Literacy Development Council ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank the many people who so kindly and eagerly helped me during the production of this book.

What is the biggest barrier to communities engaging in the development of an Asset Management Plan? Cost is not always a barrier; most plans are relatively low cost. Land ownership is an issue in most, if not all communities. 2. How much funding can a community attain from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) for the development of a plan? FCM offers up to $60,000 to successful municipal applicants.

  • Kittiwake/Gander-New-Wes-Valley Region
    Regional Profile of the Kittiwake Region May 2013 Prepared by: Janelle Skeard, Jen Daniels, Ryan Gibson and Kelly Vodden Department of Geography, Memorial University Introduction The Kittiwake/Gander – New-Wes-Valley region is located on the north eastern coast of the Island portion of Newfoundland and Labrador. This region is delineated by the Regional Economic Development Zone (Kittiwake) and the provincial Rural Secretariat region (Gander – New-Wes -Valley) (Figure 1), which have closely overlapping jurisdictions. The region consists of approximately 119 communities, spanning west to Lewisporte, east to Charlottetown, and north to Fogo Island (see Figure 1). Most of these communities are located in coastal areas and are considered to be rural in nature. Only six communities within the region have a population of over 2,000, with Gander being the largest community and the primary service centre for the Kittiwake region. Approximately 20 percent of the regional population resides in the Town of Gander (Rural Secretariat, 2013). The region also encompasses three inhabited islands that are accessible only by ferry: Fogo Island, Change Islands, and St. Brendan's (KEDC, 2007, p.2). Figure 1. Map of Kittiwake/Gander-New-Wes-Valley Region Figure 1: Gander – New-Wes Valley (Map Credit: C. Conway 2008) Regional Profile of the Kittiwake Region Page 2 of 14 Brief History The region’s history is vast. Many of its communities have their own diverse histories, which collectively paint a picture of the past. Aboriginal occupation is the first noted settlement in many parts of the region. Research suggests that 5,000 years ago, what we now call Bonavista Bay was inhabited by Aboriginal peoples who benefited from the region’s abundance of resources such as seal, salmon and caribou.
