We were delighted to find some of the Great Blue Herons have returned to their rookery after losing all the nests a couple of years ago in a windstorm. We’ve been missing them! One of the herons took exception to a predator flyby and the verbal response from the heron was quite impressive. We’ll be watching the nests for youngsters in the next few weeks.

After four years of enchanting the community of Rockport, Apothecary Suil Crow is preparing for a magical new chapter. Owner and Ipswich resident Rebeccah Pearson has officially signed a lease for the shop’s new home at 153 Main Street, the site of the former Weathervane.
The move marks a significant expansion for the apothecary, which has become a beloved North Shore “destination spot” known for its blend of Olde World charm, community activism, and mystical flair.
A Legacy of Healing and Community
Since its inception on Cape Ann, Suil Crow has been more than just a retail space. Under Pearson’s leadership, it has served as a sanctuary, offering:
Community Roots: From an outdoor food pantry and community herb garden to a well-attended craft fair for three years in a row.
Education & Artistry: Year-round courses held on the patio and inside the shop, fostering local artistic talent.
Global & Local Treasures: A curated collection featuring over 25 local crafters, plus unique finds from England, Ireland, and Scotland.
“It was time to move into a larger location,” says Pearson. “Though we love Rockport, it was time to spread our crow wings and fly into a new town where we felt would be a brighter home and the perfect fit.”
What to Expect at 153 Main Street
The Gloucester location will continue Pearson’s mission of “bringing the elements of the outside in.” Visitors can expect a rustic, enchanted atmosphere filled with:
Handcrafted Goods: Artisanal candles, homemade preserves, seasonal floral wreaths, and Pearson’s own artwork.
Curated Decor: Baskets, throw pillows, blankets, and an “unusual collection of oddities.”
Expanded Services: In addition to daily Tarot readings, the new space features a secluded area for Reiki and Sound Energy Healing with local practitioner Dan Ryan.
Coming Soon: The debut of “Witches Brew” soda!
A Heart for Cape Ann
Pearson, a practitioner of Olde World Folk Magic for over 40 years, is perhaps best known for her deep commitment to local families. For the past four years, she has spearheaded a Yule Gift Giving program. Last year, with the help of residents and local partners like Americold and Wolf Hill, the initiative provided gifts to 527 children.
“The holidays are filled with giving to those that need it the most,” Pearson notes. She confirmed the tradition will continue for a fifth year in Gloucester, adding with a smile, “Santa will definitely be around… after a visit from Krampus, of course.”
Grand Opening & Timeline
The move is expected to be completed by May 1st, just in time to celebrate May Day. To ensure a seamless transition for her “faithful shoppers,” the Rockport location will remain open while the Gloucester shop is being prepared. Fans and newcomers alike are encouraged to follow Apothecary Suil Crow on Facebook for updates on the upcoming Grand Opening celebration.
“Magic comes in all forms, it’s not all about spells and candles, it’s also about community and connection with life around you” says Pearson. “We are hoping our magic will bring love to those in Gloucester for many years to come.”
