The Fox islands

Long before the Fox Islands became a thriving pair of communities, North Island stood wild, windswept, and untouched-its dense forests, rocky shores, and deep coves waiting for the first family brave enough to call it home. That moment arrives when David Wooster and his wife, Lucy Crockett, step off their small vessel and onto the rugged shoreline, carrying little more than determination, faith, and the hope of building a life where no one else has dared to stay.

The island is beautiful, but unforgiving. Every day demands strength: clearing land thick with spruce and pine, learning the tides, surviving storms that roll in without warning, and carving out shelter against the relentless Atlantic wind. Yet in the quiet moments-beneath starlit skies, beside crackling driftwood fires, and along the hidden paths of the island-they begin to see the promise of a future rooted in this place.

As David and Lucy work to tame the land and establish the first foothold on North Island, they forge a legacy that will echo through generations. Their courage becomes the foundation upon which an entire community will one day rise. Their choices shape the destiny of the island long before it bears the name North Haven.

The Fox Islands tells the intimate, cinematic story of two pioneers whose resilience, love, and unwavering spirit transform an untouched wilderness into the beginning of a home. It is the origin of the island's story-where the Wooster legacy first takes root, and where the heart of the Fox Islands is born.
