Thinking of selling your Beeton Home?

Village of Beeton

Beeton was once a bustling center of manufacturing, honey production, lumbering, flour making, woolen and knitting mills, and more. It began as Clarksville in 1856 named after a blacksmith named Robert Clark. In 1874 that name was changed to Beeton, named after the Honey Bees that David Jones, who was the first commercial honey producer in Canada, brought to town.

Other celebrities that came from Beeton are Jim Rutherford, former NHL goaltender and General Manager, Gorden Tamblyn, owner of Tamblyn Drug Company and Kate Aitken, an author, radio broadcaster, columnist, good will ambassador of the U.N. and U.N.I.C.E.F.

Beeton is located in the city of New Tecumseth, South Simcoe and is home to two annual Fairs, the Honey Festival in May and the Fall fair in September.
