Where
We Are
The office of
the Nova Scotia Fruit Growers' Association is located in
Blair House, on the grounds of the Kentville Agricultural
Centre. Blair House is situated west of Agriculture and
Agri-Food Canada's Atlantic Food and Horticulture Research
Centre's main complex.
The town of Kentville is located along the Evangeline Trail in Nova Scotia's beautiful
Annapolis Valley, it is only 1 hour from Halifax or Digby
or 2 1/2 hours from Yarmouth. Originally called Horton Corner,
Kentville was renamed in 1826 after Queen Victoria's father,
the Duke of Kent, visited the community.
Driving Directions:
(map)

Centre is on the left as you enter town limits. Following
