We visited and shopped this week in the lovely historical town of Perth. This collection at Riverguild of small momentos, cards, art, locally crafted sheepskin slippers hats, mitts, great selection of jewelry, mugs, and all manner of gift ideas is 99 percent made in Canada and 100 percent well chosen items. We a bought stunning felt handbag and wallet made by the artist "Anais" who happened to be working at the store that day. She was gracious and kind and took some extra time to chat with our 11 yr old about her creations! We also purchased a beautiful medical grade washable Ontario sheepskin for my senior father as nothing is as comforting or healing to rest on. So happy to finally be in a gift shop not drowned in things made in other countries then slapped with a Canada symbol to trap buyers. Please visit this store, support Canadian artists and artisans, you will love your purchases. Lovely store.

Leave the 21st century behind as you enter the world of the 1840s at the elegant Matheson House, home of the award-winning Perth Museum. This popular tourist attraction, located downtown at 11 Gore Street East, is a National Historic Site.

Have taken the tour through the museum twice now and have a learnt a lot about the Perth area and the past. Next summer I hope to take the walking tour of the town that they offer on Wednesday and Saturday.

Pretty straightforward place. A building full of brewing equipment and a small area in the front with tables and chairs to enjoy the fruits of their labour. An excellent selection of a wide range of beers, most of which is on tap, and they will let you taste. They offer a 4 beer taster, as well as pints, and sell their beer in 6, and 12’s, mix and match. Some stand outs were the Maple Ale, the Mocha Stout, and the Bonfire Black Lager. Also surprisingly good was an offering brewed in conjunction with a local restaurant that has oysters in the brew. Unique, but really nice. Definitely worth a visit.

We decided at the last minute to do a two hour drive and take a tour of this place. It was well worth the trip. If you haven't tried butter tart moonshine, you have to. It was all really good, including the maple bacon, but that was the one we liked best. The tour was very informative - we don't remember the guy's name but he was knowledgeable and obviously did his job with passion. It too was top shelf! We bought a few bottles to take home. Will have to come back once their Canadian whisky is ready in December.

Perth Chocolate Works is family owned and operated artisan chocolatier kitchen and chocolate retail store located in the beautiful historic Code’s Mill building at 17 Wilson Street East in Perth, Ontario. All of our chocolates are made from the highest quality ingredients - locally sourced when possible - in small batches in our on-site kitchen. We turned our family’s passion into a way of life and are fortunate to be celebrating over 20 years of business! Perth Chocolate Works originally started on Manitoulin Island and chose the ‘Prettiest Town in Ontario’ to expand with our second location. Perth opened its doors to the McKeen family and it automatically felt like a home away from home. Our passion is chocolate! It brings us joy, whether it is enjoyed as a self-indulgence or given as a gift. Our team wants you to get a taste of what chocolate and genuinely tasty treats mean to us! So from our family to yours, we hope you enjoy your Chocolate Works experience.

Delicious chocolates! I had the raspberry delight (my favourite), mango, chocolate peppermint as well as a citrus cream. My husband had a cashew caramel bar. Both were absolutely delicious! A must do when you shop around Perth!

Great place to search for those lost and hidden objects from the past. Multiple sellers on two levels selling their vintage and retro items. Perfect place to use up a few hours hunting for those items you always wanted.
