Social Sustainability and Agritourism

Red Rock

Red Rock is a large, unique area of land on Sturgeon Lake in the Kawartha Lakes region of Ontario. A member property in the CSTN network, it is home to historic buildings, gorgeous lakefront scenery, a unique glacial formation and high-quality agricultural farmlands. Set in a popular tourist area, it is an ideal location to incorporate farming and organic product development with a variety of entertainment and agritourism activities.

CSTN's experts in watershed and ecosystem stability are working to develop some of the land for a picturesque golf course in the future. The property also features an organic vineyard and other organic crops. Over the next few years, the historic barns and buildings on site will be refurbished, allowing area residents, tourists and corporate groups to enjoy the unique landscape and waterfront. Minimizing human use impact, developing eco-friendly crops and healthy living products that are compatible with sustainable farming, while striving to increase public awareness of environmental issues, will be guiding themes to the development and operation of this property.
