Lennox Island is approximately 520 hectares in area.[3]
Most of the trees on the island are spruce, with some groves of birch trees and many different types of berries.[3]
The historic St. Anne Catholic Mission is located on the island.[4]
As of 1988, the population on the island was 239 and the largest commercial activities were peat moss and blueberry production.[3]
According to the Canadian census, the island's population was 323 in 2016 and 308 in 2021.[5]
The Minigoo Fishery (located on Lennox Island) was the first Lobster processing plant owned and operated by indigenous people in Canada in 2010.[6] It later closed its doors[7] and sought bankruptcy protection. It reopened in May 2013.[8]
Due to erosion from rapidly rising ocean levels, it has been estimated that half of Lennox Island will disappear by approximately 2065.[9]
