Abstract

"North by East" piece on a unique grocery delivery service for Matinicus Island, which has infrequent ferry service and no store. The Shaw's supermarket in Rockland takes orders from islanders by phone or fax. Kevin Waters, owner of Penobscot Island Air, makes two mail delivery flights daily and brings along the groceries. The fees charged are well worth it, say islanders.
