We have been here many times with our weekend visitors from age 3 to 90. It is always a joy to return and see the improvement in the animals as they are socialized and brought back to health after bad experiences . Even though it was raining our young visitors were insistent that they had their annual trip to the farm .Today the large horse that had been attacked by a mountain lion was so friendly and bowed to us. Such a change since the first time we saw him. Today our young visitors were feeding the animals with carrots and picking up the newly born hens. Thanks to the founder and the many volunteers that share their stories about the animals and make th visit enjoyable.

Bound by brotherhood. Brewed by tradition. MacKinnon Brothers Brewing Co. is located on a bicentennial family farm, just outside of Kingston, Ontario. With over 200 years of farming heritage behind us, we use the hops, wheat, and barley grown right here on our farm to brew beer which is emboldened with the unique character of rural Canada. We do this so beer patrons everywhere can share in the taste and tradition of our farm. Our ancestors settled in Upper Canada in 1784, and through the generations, built a thriving farm. We decided to add another element into the mix: a farm-based brewery. We’ve renovated century-old barns to house the equipment, and planted hops and malting barley in the surrounding fields. The character and history of this place shines through in every glass.

Rode our bikes to the Sunday Market at the Brewery, great vendors set up with fresh produce, Dody's fabulous soda, deliciously tasty popcorn, Pharmacy's wonderful products, awesome food truck from Otter Farms and beautiful cards from Silverplate Press of which I bought 5!! There was music playing, beer to be tasted, a pond to sit by or just visit. A wonderful relaxed afternoon in the country with interesting things to do and taste. So glad we made it there.

We're a family run apiary offering honeybee tours. We take our guests, suit them up in professional beekeeping equipment and provide a full walkthrough of the inner workings of a hive and explore how honey goes from hive to table.

My husband and I were vacationing in the area, and when I was looking for something to do for an afternoon I found that tours of a local apiary, The Bee Spot, were available in Tamworth. I'd never been to an apiary before so I booked a tour and we were on! What a great experience! Beekeepers Josh and Gord welcomed us warmly and told us all about their bee hives, the bees, and what goes into producing the honey that we enjoy. We got to see the tools they use and the different parts of a hive, and heard about what goes into keeping bees. Then we suited up in full beekeeping suits that covered us head to toe, and headed out into the field to see the hives. Josh and Gord opened up a hive and layer by layer, showed us the inner workings. They handled the racks so gently that the bees stayed calm and weren't aggressive at all. It was fascinating! After the tour was done we tried some white honey made by The Bee Spot bees. I've never had white honey before and it was delicious! Josh and Gord were extremely low key about selling their products, and had some honey, beeswax candles and beeswax wraps on display. I appreciate being able to buy products directly from the people that work to make them, and that honey really was good, so I picked up a bit of everything! My husband and I really enjoyed our tour at The Bee Spot. This activity is good for anyone who wants to know more about where their food comes from, or is interested in biology and bees. Suitable for ages 8 and up. And don't forget to wear closed toe shoes.

Great trail systems, really nice green space in L&A with wild animals, and birds. Trek through grasslands, marsh areas, around the bay through treed areas and coniferous forest. Easy trail in most sections - when you move off the gravelled path areas into the conifers, the terrain changes to moderate in some areas with short, steep inclines/declines. There are no facilities at this location.

If you live close enough, this park is perfect for even a day trip. Take the water tour of the lake and cliffs (suggest sitting on the port side), rent a canoe for a few hours, relax on the beach or just walk along the wood trails or the cliff top. We went late summer when they also had the artist weekend. Many crafts and arts available from paintings (including paddles and rocks) to concrete decorative tables. Well worth the trip anytime, even if you are not camping.

We discovered this area while in town geocaching. There are several geocaches along the walkway. The walk along the river and the falls is beautiful. We saw some native wildlife including a snake, ducks and birds.
