Calling All PEC Businesses: Here's How to Work With Us in 2026

Hey PEC business owners, makers, and entrepreneurs!

We've spent the past year highlighting amazing local spots, sharing hidden gems, and connecting people with the businesses that make Prince Edward County special. And honestly? We're just getting started.

As we look ahead to 2026, we want to work more closely with the businesses and people who make this community what it is. Whether you're a long-established winery, a new cafe, a solo maker working from your home studio, or anything in between, we want to help tell your story.

At PEC Connect, we’re building a central hub for everything that makes Prince Edward County special. Our goal is simple: to bring residents, visitors, businesses, and community groups together in one place. Instead of digging through dozens of websites, social feeds, and road-signs, we want you to be able to find what you need, where to eat, what to do, who to hire, what’s happening, and where to go, all in one connected platform.

What You’ll Find on PEC Connect

We’re creating a growing directory that reflects the full County experience. You can browse:

Eat: Restaurants, cafés, food trucks, bakeries.

Drink: Wineries, breweries, cideries, distilleries.

Stay: Hotels, B&Bs, short-term rentals, inns.

Fun / Play: Activities, beaches, trails, tours, experiences, attractions.

Visit: Must-see spots, local favourites, scenic areas, seasonal highlights.

Shop: Boutiques, maker shops, local goods.

Markets & Roadside Stands: Farmers’ markets, produce stands, and farm retail.

Business Directory: Services, trades, and professional support for residents and property owners.

We also share stories, features, and local insights through our blog because PEC isn’t just a place to visit, it’s a community to understand and be part of!

Our Mission

PEC Connect exists to make the County feel more connected, for everyone. We want to:

• Support local businesses by giving them a clear, searchable place to be discovered.

• Help residents and visitors quickly find reliable, updated information.

• Build a shared resource that reflects the real PEC: its culture, people, landscapes, and experiences.

• Invite community participation by allowing local businesses and service providers to join and add themselves to the platform.

We’re building PEC Connect for the long term. The County keeps growing and evolving, and we’re here to grow with it - keeping it easy, friendly, and grounded in the community spirit that makes PEC what it is.

2026 is going to be a big year for PEC. Let's make it count.

If you're a business owner who cares about quality, community, and creating genuine experiences, we want to work with you!

Let's build something good together. Reach out. Let's talk. Let's see what we can create.

P.S. Even if you're not ready to collaborate right now, connect with us on social media and stay in touch. You never know when the right opportunity might come up.
