Midcoast Morning

A season at Stray Moat


Listen Later

A pair of Vancouver Island Entrepreneurs have lost their space but not their vision. Last Mother's day Sabrina Anderson and Whirly Bird launched Stray Coastal Moat Farm market, hoping to create community for island farmers. They took over the building  across from the Nanaimo Airport in Cassidy that’s hosted farm markets in one way or another since the 1970s. In October, just as they were getting ready to put the finishing touches on their first year, the building was destroyed by fire. In a recent Instagram post, Anderson and Bird said that their insurance adjuster found that their operations were not responsible. They also said however that they won’t receive insurance to cover losses such as inventory or equipment. As the pair take some time to regroup and decide what’s next, they stopped by the CHLY studio to reflect on their season at Stray Moat.
