Fishes, shellfish, shrimp, and crabs are sourced along the great Abra river and its tributaries. Fresh vegetables and mushrooms are gathered from backyard gardens or the forests while cascaron and other sweet delicacies are made from cultivating sugarcane.

These and many other Abrenian native delicacies are among local culture that showcase resourcefulness and living off from the riches of nature.
