Smyth's Apple Orchard

Smyth's Apple Orchard is a family-run business that has its beginning in the mid-1800's...situated at historical Dundela, where two monuments commemorate John McIntosh, who discovered an apple tree in his back yard. Through careful attendance and grafting by his son, Allen, the native apple grew in popularity and was appropriately named the McIntosh Red. McIntosh orchards throughout the world originated from this single tree. Sam Smyth was a contemporary of Allen McIntosh with the development of a nursery; thus was the beginning of the Smyth's Orchard.
