Bridgewood Farms Cottage

The Woodbridge Family took a Canadian Road trip this March break spending time in Ottawa seeing parliament buildings, skating and taking in a Senator’s game (lost Boston fan!!) We spent some quality family time wiping out….l mean skiing at Mont Tremblant in Quebec. On the way home we stopped in Toronto at the Sportman show and I want to highlight three great Canadian Companies that are doing really neat work! Check out Adventure Trail Gear, Earthtacular and True North Log & Timber Homes .
Each of these three companies create a high quality unique product and deserve some recognition!

Adventure Trail Gear is Nick and Nigel who make the coolest rugged duffel bags, backpacks, tool bags, f***y packs and so much more. Touching and feeling this product we loved the high quality and small batch production! Look for a ATG and Bridgewood Farms collab coming soon!

Earthtacular….Kevin and Luana what can I say. You got me so excited talking about dog p**p!!! They make truly compostable poo bags for dog p**p! What is cool is that the bags are strong to use (very important while handling…you know!) They are made with corn starch so they actually break down and don’t contribute to our microplastic problem. Their story is awesome…..their Rex brand poo bags are now the official Bridgewood Farms Cottage poo bags!!! Free sample (of the bags, not poo) with every stay in 2025!

Finally we were very impressed speaking to James at True North Log & Timber Homes based out of Bracebridge Ontario. Their design astetic impressed me. Build a dream home or cottage with award winning design, craftsmanship and exceptional quality!

So this is what I was looking at while Andrew and Alex looked at all awesome hunting and fishing related items!!

What a great Canadian trip!

The annual monarch migration is underway.

Monarch migration is upon us. 🦋 We can see butterflies moving through the park from as early as then end of August through to mid-October. Their migration is very weather dependent, which makes predicting when and if we will get any large groups of Monarchs gathering in the park difficult. Typically, we’ve seen our largest groups in mid-September, but we’ve been surprised with large roosts earlier and later than this time. Watch this page for updates after Labour Day weekend. Here are some tips about monarch migration: 1. They tend to move on cold fronts, and numbers of monarchs will only build when weather conditions (rain, wind or temperature) prevent them from crossing Lake Erie. 2. Resting monarchs are best viewed at the Tip just before sunset or in the early morning – look for sheltered areas near the tops of trees. 3. And remember, monarchs with closed wings look like dead leaves, so a pair of binoculars will come in handy.
