Taylor Farms Muskoka

About this farm

Taylor Farms Muskoka is a family-run farm in Windermere, Ontario, in the Muskoka area. Founded in 1981, it produces fresh strawberries and raspberries for the Muskoka community. The farm began as a pick-your-own strawberry farm. The Shaw family moved to the farm in 1994; the family’s history there also includes a sand-and-gravel business.

What the farm offers

The farm offers pick-your-own strawberries. June-bearing varieties include Valley Sunset and Jewel, with the picking period generally running for three to four weeks from late June to mid-July, weather depending. The farm market sells the farm’s crops alongside other fresh Ontario produce, pantry products, snacks, food and refreshments. A seating area is located just outside the market, with additional grassy space available where staff indicate it is permitted.
