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)
Take Exit 12 off of Highway 101
along the connector road to Highway 1 (New Minas - Kentville). Turning left onto

the left as you enter town limits. Following up the hill leads to the Research
Centre. Turn right at the top of the driveway to Blair House, former home of the
