Meaford, located on the shores of Georgian Bay at the mouth of Bighead River, is a quaint town with a classic red brick downtown Main Street. Meaford has a beautiful balance of honouring its past and looking towards the future. Proudly rooted in agriculture, Meaford has a strong Apple Growing past, which you can see reference most obviously in their adorable apple shaped tourist centre and ongoing Apple Harvest Craft Show. Meaford also honours author (Margaret) Marshall Saunders who wrote Beautiful Joe – a timeless story about animal wellfare (I remember my grandma gifting me the book and it had a big impact on me!). Not just looking to the Past, Meaford has a great scene for live music, theatre and film at the Meaford Hall Arts & Cultural Centre. Fabulous restaurants, unique shops and a brand new state of the art Library are some of the many reasons you’ll love Meaford!
