Follow A Country Path to a less travelled, quieter way of life.
Spend an afternoon exploring rural Durham Region and meeting the people who grow, make and create here. Taste freshly pressed cider, local wine and farm-grown produce, visit beekeepers and dairy farmers, and discover herbal products, orchards and a historic mill that has been grinding grain since 1846.
In the rural farming community, many stories are shared and ideas are born around the kitchen table.
After sharing these stories, we realized that we had a common goal – to offer a unique and authentic country experience. Our close proximity to one another gives visitors more than one reason to travel the “A Country Path” route. From farm to artisan to rural industry, our members provide an experience that could only exist in rural Ontario.
We invite you to take a trip down “A Country Path” to meet us, hear our stories and see what we have to offer!
