The food pages of Martha’s Vineyard Magazine over the past twenty-five years have reflected the abundance of food on an island dotted with farms and wild places and surrounded by water. In such pieces as “Going Crabbin’” and “Eating Bluefish,” the magazine has mirrored that continuing thread of self-sufficiency that characterizes a Vineyard lifestyle of fishing, scalloping, lobstering, clamming, crabbing, hunting, or heading to dunes for beach plums or to freshwater streams for watercress.
