Tell us what you think
It’s coming up on summer when, as DuBose Heywood wrote, “the livin’ is easy.” As usual, we’ll take a little break until our next issue comes out in the fall.

Berry delicious
There’s nothing like a fresh, sun-ripened Florida strawberry. Their vibrant red color, sweet and juicy flavor, and perfectly balanced acidity have made these berries world famous.

History alive and well on Treasure Coast and going digital
The Eighth Annual History Festival is in the books, but the work continues. The festival held Jan. 11 was our biggest yet. Our company founded the festival in 2017, and today it is produced by the St. Lucie Historical Society at the Regional History Center in Fort Pierce.
Ice Cream Memories
Reading Jerry Shaw’s story on the old Dairy Queen at Orange Avenue and 10th Street made me wonder why old Fort Pierce people have such fond memories of that little institution.

Free festival makes history come alive
When we launched Indian River Magazine nearly 20 years ago, one of our goals was to share significant stories about the region’s history with our readers. Over the years we’ve presented stories about everything from the early Ice Age man in Vero to the Ais natives living along the coast from 2,000 BC to the sinking of the 1715 treasure fleet off our coast. In our last three issues, we’ve presented stories that we hope settle questions about the killing of the notorious Ashley Gang exactly 100 years ago on Nov. 1, 1924.
Finding out why
While writing our three-part series on Florida’s notorious Ashley Gang, I was struck by a couple of questions. Why is the story so compelling and why am I devoting so much time, ink and paper to it?
Paradise Found
This June marked my first full year living in Port St. Lucie. In May, my partner Jason and I were able to execute our plan and buy a home in our newly adopted city.
