This Hundred Acres . . .

Protected for future generations!
The Gardens of Rural Rootz are located in the geographic centre of a 100 acre Nature Reserve
at the base of the Bruce Peninsula, between Wiarton and Oliphant.
They are built around a headland, or "outlier", of the Niagara Escarpment.

This is the first property in Ontario to be protected by a perpetual Land Conservancy agreement
that has an integrated public walking trail system as part of the easement.
The agreement rides on the deed to the property and protects the land for all time.
           
       
​The property is largely surrounded by Quarries which extract the famous Wiarton Stone
which is so popular with urban gardeners and landscape architects.
However, Rural Rootz’ Conservancy Easement insures that the caves and outlooks
will remain as they are today so that your grandchildren’s grandchildren
may experience the thrill of this natural wonder.
