The Stories That Brought You Here
Society & Culture
Welcome to the third instalment of this special series called - Welcome Home. This is a chance to meet some of the new residents to the island, hear why they chose to live on Pender, how they are participating in the community and how the experience of living here is going.
Next up in the series, is the fantastic Stefani Williams. While this is actually her second time as a resident of the island, it was the first one that had a deep impact on her life. She opened Slow Coast Coffee in her early-twenties and it was there, she would meet her future husband, Chris. Early on in their relationship, they moved away off the island, and soon became pregnant with twin boys. Stef will describe how her young family's life unfolded during those many years away and what made them ultimately return to Pender in 2021.
As well, Stef will speak about the benefits of living in a multi-generational housing situation, how she created her own clothing business, why she was passionate about homeschooling her children, and her joy of frequenting farm stands.
All that and more, in a great little interview. Enjoy!
