Fall fairs are ingrained in Grey County's history. Most still celebrate the season the way it has been done for well over a century in rural Ontario, with livestock and trained animal shows; bake-offs; fruit, vegetable, flower and preserve contests; parades; quilt and art shows; farm equipment displays; BBQ dinners and live entertainment.
Bruce's Caves Conservation Area derives its greatest significance from the unique cave formations found along the escarpment face. These caves were formed by the wave action of post-glacial Lake Algonquin, 7,000 to 8,000 years ago.
We extend a personal invitation to you to enjoy and explore our private 430+ acre managed forest/wildlife reserve with your family and friends while visiting the surrounding area of the Bruce Peninsula.
The main natural feature of this site is the horseshoe shaped waterfall, named after the Newash Indian tribe who lived in this area at one time. The 15 metre high waterfall was formed by the erosion of soft Queenston shale beneath hard Manitoulin dolomite, in a manner similar to Niagara Falls.
Our four acres of gardens are constantly evolving with rockeries, xeriscape gardens, ponds, perennial and shade gardens, unusual trees and shrubs. The gardens are open from May to Thanksgiving.
For a spectacular view of ruralscapes and Georgian Bay this is the spot to bring your camera.
