OUR STORY
The Property
Craig grew up in Tobermory, but Teresa had never been. During a visit, Teresa fell in love with the area and bought the property formally known as Pottery By Ben. They then opened Cape Chin Bed and Breakfast and operated from December 2016 to Fall of 2021.

Honey Bees
In 2017, Craig became fascinated with bees. We started off small the same year with only managing a few hives and in 2022 turned the hobby into a full-time job, now taking care of a dozen hives!
​
Once we got a taste of fresh honey, we were hooked and started selling it, now known as “Bruce Peninsula Raw Honey”.
​
​
Eggs
As for our eggs, there’s nothing better than cooking a fresh pasture-raised egg. Our guests raved about them when we had our bed and breakfast. So, we started selling them! In the winter of 2022, we started grading our eggs so we could sell off the property.
Candles
Teresa started making beeswax candles to accompany the honey. What a great fit! Beeswax candles are bright and will even clean the air while burning. We have over two dozen candles to offer at this moment, you can check them out in the 'Shop' section or by visiting the farm!

Roaster Chickens
Have you ever wondered where your food really comes from? Well, we didn’t want to wonder anymore when it came to chicken, we wanted to know as having the knowledge of how they are raised is a value of ours. We started raising roaster chickens for ourselves but started getting a lot of interest from our customers!
