To make a living on Martha’s Vineyard can sometimes take a little creativity and passion. I am always interested in learning about people and how they make year-round life on the Island work. Even more interesting to me, the land lubber I am, is how people use the bounty of our waters as a way of life. Meet the Smith family, Ryan, ...

There are many things that make Martha’s Vineyard a special place. The beaches, the quiet beauty (not so much in August), the feeling of being removed from real life, and the libraries. Sounds strange to say the library right? In a digital age where libraries may seem a little archaic, here they’re vibrant parts of community. So mu...

WOW is what I have to say about this year’s Martha’s Vineyard Film Festival summer line-up. I had gotten an email about the festival events, and I was immediately intrigued. There is so much happening in the festival’s 14th year. It is literally a star studded, community, educational, thought provoking, life changing, fun-for-the-...

It’s Sunday night and the kitchen is the last place you want to be. The air is cooler, and the beach is calling your name. It looks like take-out is the answer to these problems. Since it is Summer, one of my favorite things to do is get take-out from the Art Cliff food truck. Soon as I see it parked in front of the diner, I s...

Imagine how much change a person can make. In 1964, Island resident Anne Hale saw the need to create a space celebrating the wildlife of Martha’s Vineyard that was open to the public. There was no Land Bank, and much of the Island was privately owned. Anne Hale, along with a few other conservationists persuaded a friend, Georg...

I love that Martha’s Vineyard has so much to do during the so-called shoulder season. I say that because it’s always fun to come to the Island no matter what time of year. However, I must admit that in recent years, more things have been added to the list of fun events. One that has become a favorite of mine is the Martha’s V...

A Simply Soaps update, sadly Simply Soaps has closed its doors. The owner, Beth Serusa is focusing on her health.   When Beth Smith (now Serusa) was a little girl growing up on Green Avenue in Edagrtown, she would watch her neighbor, Army Jackson make her own cold-process soap. Things were a little different back then. Mr...

Wearing t-shirts that said B Good To The Earth And Beaches, the Point B Realty beach clean-up team took aim at some of the beaches of Edgartown today, as part of the island-wide Earth Day Beach Clean-Up on Martha’s Vineyard. Targeting Lighthouse Beach, the iconic beach that curves around the Edgartown Lighthouse on Edgartown Harbo...

Living on Martha’s Vineyard, we sometimes take the beauty that surrounds us daily for granted. Earth Day is a good time to stop and take a moment to not only help, but also enjoy nature, whether it’s the park down the block or one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Our team at Point B Realty is celebrating Earth Day ...
