Spurr Brothers Farm is prominent, fifth-generation family farm located in the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia, specifically in Melvern Square and Wilmot. The farm was established in 1875 growing apples, hay, and grains on 62 acres of land. Over the generations, the farm has expanded significantly and now encompasses roughly 800 acres of orchards and farmland, producing more than 20 varieties of apples, as well as strawberries, onions, potatoes, and forage crops.

Katie Campbell with her cousins, William Spurr and Lisa Jenereax, currently manage various aspects of the business. Katie oversees much of the business administration, including the packing house and market.

William manages potatoes, onions, carrots, cover crops, and has launched a hard cider division using farm-grown ingredients and his sister Lisa is the orchard specialist, responsible for innovations in fruit varieties and orchard management.

 

Spurr Brothers Farms also runs a modern farm market and taproom, offering products grown on-site as well as goods from other local producers and small businesses. The farm is well-known for its commitment to high-quality, locally grown produce and for being a longstanding advocate for Nova Scotia agriculture.
