Located in an abandoned Hershey’s factory in Smiths Falls, the Tweed Visitor Centre is more than a window into the world of cannabis - it’s a fascinating look into the past, present and future of our favourite plant. From the moment you arrive to peeking into working grow rooms, your senses will be engaged and your minds opened as you explore the history, science and culture of cannabis. An educational theatre experience challenges preconceptions and highlights society’s changing relationship over 10,000 years. Discover the complexities of the cannabis plant and learn about the role of terpenes, and witness our bean to bar artisanal chocolate production. Finish off your tour with a cup of coffee, browse through our collection of books, and stop by the gift shop for something special to remember us by. We hope this behind-the-scenes tour will broaden your understanding of cannabis and inspire new perspectives.

From entering the parking lot to the end of the tour, we really enjoyed speaking with the employees. Special shout-out to Rebecca ("Blue") and John for the great tour which was well organized, informative and interesting. The factory itself is unbelievable clean! We were greeted in the parking lot by some of the staff on their lunch break. They were all really friendly and smiling. At the end of the tour we milled about in the merchandise area and had nice, informative conversations with Blue and some other female staff. We really liked Blue in particular for her warm, friendly manner. She is definitely a good representative to be the 'Face for Tweed'. Don't ever let her...or John leave!

Family birthday arranged for an elderly relative. Used the occasion after a very good lunch to check out the museum and a bit of the farm itself. The young one was impressed with the museum.

Leave the 21st century behind as you enter the world of the 1840s at the elegant Matheson House, home of the award-winning Perth Museum. This popular tourist attraction, located downtown at 11 Gore Street East, is a National Historic Site.

Have taken the tour through the museum twice now and have a learnt a lot about the Perth area and the past. Next summer I hope to take the walking tour of the town that they offer on Wednesday and Saturday.

A must for anyone. It is in the old post office, and has 3 exhibits. The one on the logging history was fantastic and I learned a lot. The one on the history of the town was neat, and the natural history was OK. The special exhibit about the Spanish Flu was amazing, and well timed.

I took my grandchildren and family friends. The owner and curator is intuitive about the interests of the children and fascinated us all with the stories and history that are so closely connected with the clocks. It was a delight and even the children were reluctant to leave, having a special clock corner to explore. This is a hidden treasure, offering an amazing and fascinating experience. Don’t miss it when travelling in Deep River & Area !!

A smaller museum. Interesting place with room dedicated to the early lumbering industry, snowmobiles, local car dealers, etc.
