Loads of fun at the Hunter Brothers Farm and corn maze in Florenceville New Brunswick, Canada. We're up in Canada for a late summer vacation, when there's fewer bugs and the nights are cool.  This is a good time of year to be here, and not just because of the weather.  At this time of year there's harvesting to be done, with corn and pumpkins, and potatoes ready to come out of the ground.At the Hunter Brothers Farm they've turned this into a great opportunity for a family fun park, with farm themed activities for the kids.  The corn maze is the big attraction, and I think it may hold the honors for being one of the biggest in the country at 6 acres!  Other fun things to do include:- straw bale castle- zip lines- corn room- tug of war- tube slides- tractor slide- pedal bike race course- ... 09/17/2019

    When my two boys were in the minor hockey league, trips back and forth from Maine into Canada were three and four times a week, or more.  I enjoyed our location on the New Brunswick border, and being able to jump across and take in a hockey game. But now my youngest is a senior and his varsity season just ended. The Slammers and other hockey talent have games at the beautiful Woodstock Carleton County Civic Center arena and just because I am no longer chasing the black puck around Canadian rinks, it's time to take a trip across the border.  The center also has a huge pool that younger kids really enjoy having their birthday parties at and it is reasonable priced to "rent". Woodstock New Brunswick is a beautiful little town similiar sized to Houlton Maine. Maybe hit a movie, check ou... 03/15/2009

Established in 1784, New Brunswick was at first divided into eight counties by the Territorial Division Act, 1786. Sometime between 1831 and 1833, Carleton County was set off from York County and a Shire Town (county seat) was established in the Town of Woodstock. Today, Woodstock is by far the largest municipality in Carleton County and is also home of the Woodstock First Nation. You'll still find the Old Carleton County Courthouse, built in 1833.
