As I travel through the communities of

Wellington County, I am constantly amazed at the variety of small businesses and shops which make up the economy of this vibrant area.

These businesses not only provide goods, services, and jobs for our families, but they also pride themselves in being part of an innovative business community which we can support when times are good, and depend on when they are not. These are people who care about more than just the bottom line. Even in these trying times, our business leaders have continued to invest capital and keep our local economy strong.

I would like to commend the Mount Forest and the Arthur Chambers of Commerce, and the Wellington North Economic Advisory Committee for all the support and hard work they do on behalf of the business community, and I wish them the best of success in the coming year.

As the Federal Member of Parliament for PerthWellington, I am pleased to welcome visitors to Wellington North on behalf my constituents. It is my privilege to serve as your voice in Ottawa.

I want to thank the Chambers of Commerce in Mount Forest and Arthur for putting this guide together.

our beautiful Township nestled in a picturesque rural setting and located at the north end of the County of Wellington. Anchored by the communities of Arthur in the south and Mount Forest in the north, the Township also encompasses the charming hamlets of Conn, Damascus, Farewell, Gordonville, Monck, Petherton, Riverstown and Tollgate. The hamlet of Kenilworth is the geographical heart of the Township and the location of the Municipal Administrative Centre.

The Township of Wellington North was created in 1999 through the amalgamation of the Village of Arthur, the Town of Mount Forest and the Townships of Arthur, West Luther, West Garafraxa and Peel.

Live, Work and Play in Wellington North

The quality of life available is second to none with clean air and clean water, quiet tree lined streets, abundant recreational activities, excellent shopping opportunities, convenient heath care, excellent educational and recreational facilities, and a wide variety of places to worship, retail stores and business services for our workforce, residents, guests and visitors. Old established neighbourhoods are complemented by new residential development and small urban centres by rural countryside. For more information on moving to or investing in the Township of Wellington North download a copy of our comprehensive Community Profile or Developer’s Information Package.

Visit www.wellington-north.com for more information including Community Calendars and other resources.

Message From The Mayor Congratulations to the Mount Forest and Arthur District Chamber of Commerce for once again coming together to produce this informative Community, Visitors and Business Guide for the Township of Wellington North with the support of a strong and dedicated group of volunteers.

With its small town, hamlet and rural living, wonderfully varied tourist attractions, strong agricultural tradition, quality of community and family life, and a beautiful landscape changing with each season, Wellington North has something for visitors and residents to explore year round. When in Arthur be sure to visit the murals that pay tribute to the being recognized by the Ontario Legislature as “Canada’s Most Patriotic Village,” for their extraordinary efforts in WWII. Patriotic celebrations fill the streets during the Canada Day holiday weekend that includes the downtown Art in the Street event. Be sure to make Mount Forest Raymond Tout, Mayor your destination on the third weekend in July to take in the Top 100 Fireworks Festival, featuring spectacular attractions for the whole family. This year we are adding to your experience by offering farm-fresh foods straight from the people that grow them at the Wellington North Farmers’ Market in Mount Forest on Friday afternoons, and by showcasing our wealth of heritage and cultural attractions through Doors Open Ontario, set for September 27th, 2014.

Wellington North also offers walking, cycling and birding trails all winding through tranquil vistas that you can discover on your own self-guided tour. Of all the trails, The Butter Tart Trail is one of the most popular. This sweetest of trails, since 2006, explores all things ‘butter tart’ in one variation or another and features many delightful desserts and other creations.

Wellington North is proud of its communities and all that they have to offer, including a wide variety of retail business and a large manufacturing, exporting and industrial base. We also have many churches and places of worship, a full service hospital, medical clinics, emergency services, OPP, Fire and Ambulance Services available in our community.

The Township of Wellington North

Simply Explore... Those two words describe the wonders of Wellington North, an area that encompasses walking, cycling and birding trails, plus a horticultural trail, all winding through quaint tranquil vistas you can discover on your own self-guided tour.

But of all the trails, The Butter Tart Trail™ is one of the most popular.

Which is hardly surprising. Who doesn’t like a rich,decadently sinful butter tart, and on this self-guided road tour, there are at least a dozen varieties you’ll come across. Other inventions you may encounter include doggy butter tart treats, butter tart inspired scents, butter tart flavoured ice cream, pie, muffins and trifle. You may even chance upon a butter tart sundae.

It’s an exploration of all things “butter tart”... in one variation or another.

You’re Invited to Doors Open Wellington North September 27, 2014 from 10am-4pm Residents and visitors are invited to discover first-hand Wellington North’s hidden heritage treasures. We’re opening the doors to some of our most intriguing and charming cultural and heritage sites in the area. www.doorsopenontario.on.ca

You Help Our Local Economy When you buy from local farmers and producers, you are supporting local businesses and providing income for families in our community.

You Get Safety Assurance How much do you know about your food? Wellington North
