Wreckhouse
Known as the windiest place in Newfoundland, the Wreckhouse area on the island’s southwest corner produces gale-force winds so intense, they have blown trains off their tracks. The Wreckhouse inspires awe with both its beauty and its punch. Wreckhouse wine, made from hand-picked, locally grown partridgeberries, offers the tantalizing taste of apple with the special “zip” of the wild partridgeberry. It’s a combination that’ll blow you away.
This church is in Fogo. My grandfather, Harvey Ginn, was baptized in this church, many years ago. The home that my grandfather was raised in sat at the foot of Brimstone Head. The house may be gone, but we are still able to visit the water well where they drew their water from.
