The Ames family have a long history in Canada. Originating from County Down, Northern Ireland, they arrived in the Eastern Townships (Estrie) region of Quebec. The Ames farm was founded in the 19th century adjacent to Melbourne Ridge, QC. Gordon and his son Elwin managed the farm in those early years.

The farm consisted of about 300 acres, used mainly for dairy and homesteading, my mother grew up here, and Elwin taught me a lot from my visits from the city. So Ames Wildflower Honey is dedicated to the resilient spirit of the Ames family.
We are now located in beautiful Nova Scotia and have been serving customers here since 2013.
