Travel to Meaford Ontario Canada


Short video of Meaford, Ontario Canada. Founding of Meaford In 1837 inhabitants of St. Vincent Township petitioned the government requsting that land at the mouth of the Bighead River be reserved as a landing Place. The Land was set aside, a town plot of “Meaford” laid out in 1845, and lots subsequently offered for sale. As early as 1941 a sawmill and a grist-mill had been built on adjoining land, several roads constructed to the landing and a post office called “St. Vincent” established. In 1865 this post office was re-named “Meaford”, which by that time had become a flourishing community, connected by steamers and road with the railhead at Collingwood. Meaford was incorporated as a town in 1874. At the beginning of the movie you see a big red thing. That is an apple which is used as the tourist info. Meaford area is known for it’s apple growers here in Ontario. www.meaford.ca music by:Harmony Steel – Sheiran www.alarinmusic.com
