After moving to the area, we were delighted to find a great market that's open 7 days a week. So…read moremuch selection here from local apples to potatoes and local preserves and frozen scallops or lobster. Absolutely everything you need and no reason to go to big box stores. There are constant 'flash' sales with random items on sale for a ridiculously low price. Follow their social media pages to find out how to get a deal. The only downside to this place is the amount of plastic wrap waste is used in the store. Literally every item is slapped in plastic so it's very discouraging. If they can get swat from thus significantly wasteful problem, this would be the best place in the neighbourhood.

Hennigar's has been around since 1948 and it gets better every time I visit. Local produce,…read morehomemade baked goods and preserves are the stars as well as some lovely craft items. One very special thing about Hennigars is that it's open 7 days a week all year round. True, there is less produce in the winter, but it's still treat to visit. And you can always pick up some of their homemade apple cider - direct from their apple orchard. Right next door, on their farm you'll find some great parkland and trails to hike all summer long. Imagine the delicious picnic with goodies from the market for stops along the way.

If you've never been to their market, you've likely never tried their ciders because they aren't…read moreavailable anywhere else or in stores. With many new flavours, the brand spanking new location is on acres and acres of their farmland right off Highway/Trunk 1; big black building, you can't miss it! The cider is what you come for. It's on tap or try a flight if you're not ready to commit to an entire glass. Bringing the kids? No problem, there's an ice cream take out window out back and doughnuts are available Thursday to Sunday. LOTS of room for them to run around the muddy fields (for now) or over into the sunflower patch. Sit outside on the back deck or under the picnic shelter. There's also seating inside if you're not into the Valley heat/humidity. There's lots of work still going on here but this is also a wonderful market with fresh produce and lots to offer. Free parking on site but this place gets packed quickly and parking spots are tougher to find. Looks like there will be a lot more expansion here as they only just opened to the public a week ago. Bottoms up!

What a beautiful place! We travelled up this way to do some apple picking for the last pick of the…read moreyear and it was an absolute blast! The main store sells everything from cider to meat pies and everything in between! The family filled atmosphere was refreshing and the customer service was unlike any other corn maze. Everyone was so kind - especially if you get lost! They gave out maps to help show you were the varieties of apples were. The hay ride was a blast - and surprisingly long! They helped people with strollers and trouble walking up and had no trouble with any of it. Definitely one of my favourite apple picking experiences! We will be back next year hopefully for the haunted maze! Can't wait!

The customer service here is excellent. I'm sure the store is locally owned and it looks like it's…read morebeen around forever. My only complaint is that while they do sell local veggies and baked goods, they have no local meat: disappointing. They also sell small plants, veggie seeds, a variety of convenience items, bread, ice cream, lotto, cigarettes, and more.

It's the great pumpkinS, Charlie Brown!…read more The changing leaves signal the arrival of a very special time of year - pumpkins! Located less than an hour outside of Halifax, in Windsor, is the Dill Family Farm - famous, around the world - for their giant pumpkins. But lucky for those of us without acres of land and a forklift, their pumpkins come in all shapes, sizes and weights. And while yes, you can get a pumpkin for the same price from your local grocery store, there is something magical about being able to walk in a pumpkin patch and have a love at first site moment, with a gourd. The Dill Family Farm also has local apples and is on record as having the pond where the first game of hockey was played. In 2012 I noticed they have an admisison fee for the first time, which they refund upon purchase. And believe me, you will purchase.

They've got beautiful local greens and fruits, your regular convenience items, an interesting little garden shop and array of yard statues (including the strange and mythical cow pig!), but where they really shine is the ice cream. There's about 20 different flavours including Grizzly Tracks, Blueberries and Cream, and Maple Nut. The portions are plentiful and the taste is just divine. So when you're passing through, make sure you stop, grab a few scoops, and luxuriate at the picnic tables for a few minutes. I certainly will.
