Nature's Bounty FarmNature's Bounty is a picturesque orchard with more than 20 varieties of high-quality apples, located on the rolling hills of the Oak Ridges Moraine near Port Perry, Ontario.
The farm also grows hot peppers, pumpkins, squash, and sunflowers, and is home to a flock of friendly sheep. Every fall, families return to Nature's Bounty for its gorgeous scenery, crisp and delicious apples, and taste of country life.
Enjoy the tradition of picking your own apples, sipping cider, and wandering the orchard this fall.

July Farm Update
Even though it feels like summer has just arrived, we are already counting down the days to harvest for our earliest apple varieties. Thanks to an mild spring and early bloom in the orchard, maturity is running about seven to ten days ahead of a typical year. Based on our crop estimates, the crop is shaping up to be a big one.
Our team has been busy hoeing pumpkins to stay ahead of the weeds and thinning apples to ensure balanced production throughout the orchard. The corn maze has been cut and our pepper plants are beginning to set fruit.
We recently introduced a new female llama to the flock as a companion for Leo, our one-year-old llama who arrived last spring. The duo have become fast friends and can often be spotted relaxing together in the shade or rolling around in their favourite "dugout."
We have our fingers crossed for a warm summer and decent rains. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for more updates!

Meet the Farmers
Cathy and Marvin
Cathy and Marvin purchased the 100-acre property as a young couple and started planting apple trees in 1980. After several years of careful nurturing, they opened their farm to the public in 1993, offering classic varieties like Cortland, McIntosh and Northern Spy. While some of those original trees continue to be productive almost 40 years later, they have since planted nearly 14,000 trees of popular varieties like Honeycrisp, Silken and Gala. The couple lives on the property in the original century-old farmhouse and remain stewards of the the land, sharing their farm with wildlife, native plant and tree species, and curious visitors.
