Throughout Coastal Connections, we've seen a number of examples of humans working together to restore and steward natural systems that have come out of balance. In this episode, we dive into a number of stories from a seaweed inspired individual in PEI. Dr. Irené Novaczek is a benthic ecologist, gardener, professor and entrepreneur, just to name a few of her titles. Dr. Novaczek discusses her diverse journey building community resiliency, through innovative entrepreneurship and maximizing socio- ecological relationships. This episode is co- hosted by Dr. Kelly Vodden, a professor and researcher of community development and rural resiliency at Grenfell campus, Memorial University. • Social enterprise in Canada http://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/053.nsf/eng/h_00006.html • Social enterprise at MUN https://www.mun.ca/social-enterprise/ Irene's Work: • Oceanna Seaplants: https://bit.ly/OceannaSeaplants • Sea Vegetable of the Pacific Islands Cookbook- https://bit.ly/SeaweedCookBook • Lettuce of the sea article: http://saltyisland.com/lettuce-of-the-sea/ • Learn more about saving seeds: http://www.seedsecurity.ca/en/programs/save PEI farmers markets: o https://summersidefarmersmarket.com o https://charlottetownfarmersmarket.com/portfolio/kettlegrove-soapworks/ Basin Head Provincial Park, PEI • https://welcomepei.com/beaches/basin-head-beach/ • Irish Moss in Basin Head- CBC News Article https://bit.ly/CBCIrishMoss PEI Watershed Alliance • https://www.facebook.com/pg/PEIWatershedAlliance/posts/ Irene's Colleagues and Friends: Thierry Chopin on the idea of co-cultivating multiple species together, or Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) • https://bit.ly/SeaweedAndSalmon • ‘Networking Friday with Thierry Chopin' https://bit.ly/ThierryChopin • Seaweeds and Parkinsons Article- https://bit.ly/SeaweedAndParkinsons Theresa Doyle and Rock Barra Retreat - https://www.teresadoyle.com/rock-barra-retreat/ Special Credits: Script Design by Emily Doyle, Post Doctoral Fellow, Rural Resilience, MUN https://ruralresilience.ca/researchers/postdoctoral-researchers/emily-doyle/ We love to hear your feedback.

With its long and well-documented history, Prince Edward Island makes a compelling case study for thousands of years of human interaction with a specific ecosystem. The pastoral landscapes, red sandstone cliffs, and small fishing villages of Canada’s “garden province” are appealing because they appear timeless, but they are as culturally constructed as they are shaped by the ebb and flow of the tides. Bringing together experts from a multitude of disciplines, the essays in Time and a Place: An Environmental History of Prince Edward Island (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2016) explore the island’s marine and terrestrial environment from its prehistory to its recent past. Beginning with PEI’s history as a blank slate - a land scraped by ice and then surrounded by rising seas - this mosaic of essays documents the arrival of flora, fauna, and humans, and the different ways these inhabitants have lived in this place over time. The collection, edited by History Professor Edward MacDonald and Communications Professor Joshua MacFadyen of the University of Prince Edward Island, as well as the former Director of Island Studies, Dr. Irené Novaczek, offers policy insights for the province while also informing broader questions about the value of islands and other geographically bounded spaces for the study of environmental history and the crafting of global sustainability. Putting PEI at the forefront of Canadian environmental history, Time and a Place is a remarkable accomplishment that will be eagerly received and read by historians, geographers, scholars of Canadian and island studies, and environmentalists.
