The Delta Agricultural Society is the proud sponsor of the annual Delta Fair: a Leeds County tradition since 1830.

Complete with agricultural and homecraft competitions/displays, children’s activities, evening grandstand entertainment, concessions, tractor and truck pulls, concessions and midway rides/games provided by World’s Finest Shows, there is something for everyone at the fair.

Old Stone Mill

The Old Stone Mill is a National Historic Site showcasing milling technology and 1800s industrial heritage. The mill was built in 1810 and is one of the finest examples of early industrial architecture in the region. It features interpretive displays, an operating waterwheel, millstones, bolter, grain elevators, and artifacts illustrating the grist milling process through the years. You can tour the mill yourself or enjoy a free guided tour. During the summer, heritage wheat is ground into flour using the 200-year-old millstones; the stone ground flour is available in the gift shop which also offers interesting mementos of your visit. 

For additional information, contact the Delta Mill Society.

Township of Rideau Lakes

Forged in the crucible of the great ice storm of 1998, the  Township of Rideau Lakes came into being on January 1, 1998, as an amalgamation of the former Townships of Bastard and South Burgess, North Crosby, South Crosby, South Elmsley and the Village of Newboro. Rideau Lakes lies in the Northwest corner of the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville and is geographically the largest municipality in the County.

Rideau Lakes’ strength and its opportunities for the future rest in the diversity of its population, economic activity, and geography. Farming, tourism, and service industries form the backbone of the local economy.
