ABOUT SMITHS' APPLES AND FARM MARKET

Located in Port Elgin, Ontario, Smiths' orchard is designed to produce top quality fruit on easy-to-pick dwarf apple trees. Smiths' is a friendly place located on a quiet country road, and is family owned and operated by Steve and Micki Smith. During your visit, take a look in the Farm Market and you will find freshly baked pies, local produce, and much more. Grab a warm apple turnover and freshly brewed coffee while enjoying the relaxing atmosphere and well-maintained grounds.

Visiting Smiths' Apples has become a fall tradition for many families. Besides picking apples and exploring the Corn Maze, there are many other interesting things to see and do during your outing. Stay and play on our huge straw fort, try out a game of Twist n' Turn (our version of Twister®), pick out a pumpkin (we have lots of different sizes!), and have your picture taken at one of the many fun murals around the farm.

THE HISTORY OF SMITHS'

Growing fruit, vegetables, and flowers has always been a part of Steve and Micki Smiths' lives.  Steve studied horticulture at the University of Guelph and later taught greenhouse science at a local high school; Micki owned and operated a flower shop in Owen Sound.  In 1993 they bought a 72-acre cornfield on The River Road on which to build a new home. 

Since they already enjoyed both people and plants, it was a natural fit to plan and develop Smiths' Apples and Farm Market- a place where families could enjoy an outing in the country, wandering in the carefully tended orchard and picking tree-ripened apples. 

With the help of family and friends Smiths' has prospered into a full-time operation with about 6000 trees, and offers many varieties of apples, a Farm Market, fun family activities , and an Artisan Bakery which makes fresh baked goods.
