Near St. Ann's church in the interior of St. Joseph parish, Andrew's Sugar Factory is the largest working sugar processing factory in Barbados. Barbados sugar is renowned as some the highest quality in the world. Sugar cane is processed for sugar, but also for energy as "fuel cane". Fuel cane would be preferable to coal because of environmental concerns and because it is a renewable energy source. Hike around to see how a working sugar mill operates.
