ABOUT MINTO-MAPLETON
Minto is composed of the former towns of Harriston and Palmerston, the former Village of Clifford and surrounding rural area of the former Minto Township. The Township of Mapleton is a strong, growing and vibrant community made up of a rich and diverse cultural background. Mapleton offers the distinct characteristics enjoyed by rural living and also serves as a bedroom community for Kitchener-Waterloo.
Minto’s economy bustles with industrial, trade, sales, service and administrative support. On the other hand, Mapleton’s economy is driven by its agriculture. Several farm-related industries support
the farming community and its needs.
HIGHLIGHTS
