Report No. 36 4 1 / Figure I - Outline Map of Ontario Showing Location of Duflerin County 5 SOIL SURVEY REPORT OF DUFFERIN COUNTY, Ontario bY D. W. Hoffman, R. E. Wicklund, and B. C. Matthews INTRODUCTION The survey of the soils of Dufferin County was conducted in 1958 and the final checking and correlation was completed in 1961. The objective of the survey was to classify and describe the soils and to prepare a map showing the location and area of the different soil types. The results of the survey are presented in this report and on the accompanying soil map. There is considerable variation in the soils in the county. The relief varies from depressional to very hilly and, except for a few small areas near the top of the Niagara Escarpment, the soil deposits are deep. Almost all of the soils in the county can be cultivated although they usually require some improvement. Such improvements may consist of fertilizer applications, installation of drains, irriga- tion, practices to reduce erosion, or stone removal. Mixed farming and livestock raising are most common and the sale of agricul- tural products from cattle, chickens, swine and sheep provide a large part of the farm income. The county is not well known for the production of a wide range of cash crops. However, large acreagesof potatoes are grown in the vicinity of Honey- w*oodand Redickville and flax is an important crop in a few places. This report deals with the origin and natural characteristics of the soils as well as their capabilities and limitations for agricultural use. Each soil type is de- scribed in detail and its location is shown on the soil map. A section on soil management and a rating of the soils according to their suitability for various crops is included in the report. Sources of additional informa- tion with regard to crops and fertilizer practices are listed. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE AREA Location Dufferin County is bounded on the west by Wellington and Grey Counties, on the south by Wellington and Peel, on the east by Simcoe and on the north by Simcoe and Grey Counties.

  • LIB-002-2019 (First Quarter Report 2019)
    REPORT TO COUNCIL REPORT NUMBER: LIB-002-2019 DEPARTMENT: Clearview Public Library Board MEETING DATE: May 13, 2019 SUBJECT: First Quarter Report 2019 RECOMMENDATION: Be It Resolved, that Council of the Township of Clearview hereby: 1) Receives the Clearview Public Library Board First Quarter Report 2019. BACKGROUND: This report summarizes the activities of the Clearview Public Library in the first quarter of 2019. COMMENTS AND ANALYSIS: Building Project A revised schedule for the project has been distributed, and Bondfield is currently meeting the schedule targets. Programs Program attendance exceeded 2000 in each of these three months. Use of in- library computers, as well as wireless access through patron-owned devices, continue to be the Library’s most used program service. Pre-school programs provided through area schools are also very popular, with February being the busiest month in this period with 429 participants. Clearview Public Library’s Adult Colouring program, which provides participants an opportunity to socialize as well as to achieve mindfulness and reduce anxiety, has been running out of the Stayner Branch and area churches for a number of years. The program has developed a loyal following, but the participants have requested Page 1 of 5 that the program be moved permanently to the library for ease of access to the collection and services and so that there is no confusion about where the program will be held each week. Library staff have thanked the local churches who have generously partnered with us on this program for supporting it over the years. March Break programs included two VanGo programs provided by the MacLaren Art Gallery, as well as a wide variety of in-library programs for all ages geared to the STEM curriculum.

  • Media Release Dufferin County Invests in Tourism Strategy
    Media Release Dufferin County Invests in Tourism Strategy Development The resulting plan is intended to stimulate visitation to the region, while ensuring County-wide efforts for tourism development are complementary to one another. June 24, 2020 – The County of Dufferin has recently launched the development of a five-year Tourism Strategy and Action Plan, in the interest of establishing common goals and vision for the region while supporting its economic development. The creation of this Strategy & Action Plan is a major initiative led by the County of Dufferin's Economic Development Team, and the resulting plan is intended to stimulate visitation to the region — previously part of Headwaters Tourism's mandate before the organization closed its doors in 2019 — with a reimagined approach. The plan is being created as the Town of Orangeville also invests in a Tourism Strategy and various municipalities develop local tourism initiatives, with the goal being to ensure County- wide efforts for tourism development are complementary to one another. The approach will be three-phased and implemented throughout the next six months, overseen by County of Dufferin's Economic Development Team. Project efforts are being facilitated by Toronto-based consulting firm, Bannikin Travel & Tourism. “It’s our intention to develop a plan that would serve to identify Dufferin County as a destination,” said Darren White, Warden, Dufferin County, “The County has a lot of incredible things to offer, and we’re optimistic about the opportunities for local tourism and what that might mean to our communities and economy.” Business owners throughout Dufferin County and the municipalities within will be consulted on their perspectives regarding opportunities and challenges to further develop our local tourism opportunities.
