Fall in Barrie has a magic all its own. The air turns crisp, the leaves shift to shades of gold, and suddenly the whole town seems to be outside, soaking in the season. One of my favorite ways to experience it? A trip to Chappell Farms’ Fall Festival — a true local gem.
If you haven’t been, you’re missing out. There’s pumpkin picking, wagon rides, friendly farm animals, a sunflower maze, and food that just tastes like fall — think hot chocolate, candy apples, and popcorn. It’s simple, joyful, and brimming with that small-town community feeling that makes Barrie so special.
Watching families load pumpkins into their cars and kids laughing on hayrides, you can’t help but feel that sense of belonging — exactly the kind of community people dream of calling home.
And that’s what caught my eye about Everwell, a brand-new neighborhood just minutes from Chappell Farms.

Everwell is a thoughtfully designed community by the Sorbara Group, built for people who want that perfect mix of space, nature, and connection. The homes are modern and bright — from cozy townhomes to spacious detached models — but what really stands out is the setting.
Over 30% of Everwell is dedicated to green space, with trails, ponds, and parks all woven through the neighbourhood. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy quiet mornings, friendly neighbours, and still be close to everything you need — schools, shopping, Highway 400, and, of course, Chappell Farms just down the road.
It’s more than a new development — it’s a fresh start for families, professionals, and anyone looking to plant roots in a community that feels alive.
If you’ve been thinking about making a move, or you’re just curious about what’s next for Barrie’s growth, Everwell is worth a closer look.
