Aylesford is a farming community in Kings County. It’s roughly 15 minutes from CFB Greenwood and 10 minutes from Berwick along the Evangeline Trail (Trunk 1) tourist route, named after the famous Acadian story about Evangeline.
Originally settled by United Empire Loyalists during the American Revolution, Aylesford was named after the fourth Earl of Aylesford, Lord of the Bedchamber to George III.
Aylesford’s economy relies primarily on the local agricultural industry. It is a service centre for the surrounding agricultural district. An important crop is cranberries cultivated on the extensive peat bogs. Peat moss harvesting operations are also active.
