The Leahy family of the Leahy Orchards first came to Canada in the mid 1820’s, following their cousins from Ireland in search of new opportunity. By 1880, they had settled on a farm in Franklin Centre Quebec right along the US border. James Leahy continued what his family knew and had done for generations before him. On his farm in Franklin, he grew potatos, farmed dairy cows and practice mixed farming. Soon after he tried his hand at boiling maple syrup and growing apples. His son Daniel began working with him early on, eventually taking over the farm himself, expanding his acreage and increasing crop yield over the years. He owned and operated the farm with his own children up until 1959.
