Hi! I’m Jay.

I started Highland Bow & Arrow in 2017 just down the road from the place I call home: Wreck Cove! Back then, the range was a gravel pit in a tiny blip on the Cabot Trail map called Skir Dhu (which is Gaelic for “black rock”). Check out a photo album of the three years I taught archery at my previous location.

In October 2019, I took over Wreck Cove Wilderness cabins from a previous owner who operated them for 23 years. I rent two cabins year-round and I live on site to help with anything I can. I teach archery all summer and fall (June until December) and tend to the cabins all winter.

I am obsessed with foraging plants and fungi, and have even created a Fungi Database on my website to show off all the amazing fungus that grows here. I host events like Foraging Field Trips, Chainsaw Courses, Archery, and this year a summer market.

If you already know me and enjoyed your experience, consider leaving a Google review for Highland Bow & Arrow or Wreck Cove Wilderness Cabins to let me know!
