Norm and Fred McCaw took over West Moira Orchards on the West Moira Street in October 2007 from Kurt and Karen Kaiser. The roadside store is on the south side of West Moira Road and the 100 acre farm is on the north side.

The Kaisers bought the farm in 1981 and opened the market garden for business in 1984. They opened the roadside store in 1993.

The farm is laid out with a number of different plots, which can be irrigated from a pond in the centre. There are apple trees, a large area of strawberries, high bush blueberries (ripe between July 15 – September 1), raspberries, purple raspberries and fall raspberries (ripe between September 1 – September 30 or first frost), tomatoes (ripe between August 15 – September 30), corn, peppers, beets, spring and fall wheat and a variety of different types of potatoes.

During the strawberry season, which runs approximately from June 21 – July 8 the farm is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Once the strawberries are finished, the farm closes on Sundays.

You can either pick your own at the farm or go to the roadside store. The store is open seven days a week from June to Hallowe’n, from 9.30 a.m. to 6 p.m. If you go regularly you will find vegetables in season.
