Pineapple Farmers, like the well known, ‘Lady Di’ are cultural icons within the Eleuthera community, and although famous for her fresh pineapples, she also produces a cottage line, called Lady Di’s Tropical Delights, including jams, jellies, hot sauces, and bottled tomato. Other fresh fruits she is known for cultivating in their seasons, are star fruit, avacadoes, mangoes, tangeloes, bananas, and key limes. (335-5006/470-7235) Community spirit is alive and well and was captured here in the summer of 2018 as men, women and children came out to celebrate the 45th Independence holiday together. The community played games, hosted races, held a fun fashion show, and ate together - all while proudly sporting the national flag colours in a celebration of Independence.
