The Bayside is an independent and locally owned business operated by husband & wife team Gerald Jackson and Marilyn MacDonald – both are native Cape Bretoners with a strong devotion to their community. They began this business because they wished to stay in their community and contribute to the economy of their community while creating a business that they both greatly enjoy.

"We have a small farm operation at the head of Lake Ainslie in Inverness County. We have been growing most of our own food and storing it for year-long usage for years. Providing some food to the Food Hub lets us make a bit of extra money while supporting an extremely exciting and forward-thinking venture."
