Colborne, ON – May 21, 2025. Today, Fidelity proudly announces the purchase and acquisition of the Rutherford’s Farm and Roadside Market. Successfully owned and operated locally by Dave and Sherry Rutherford since 1990 and farmed by the Rutherford Family since the late 1920s. We are grateful to Dave and Sherry for their endless commitment to the community and we are excited that they have agreed to continue to operate the roadside market in partnership with Fidelity.
Exciting plans are underway to enhance the Roadside Market by Spring 2026, which include:
- Expanding the store to offer an even wider selection of goods.
- Upgrading the parking lot to reduce traffic congestion on Highway 2.
- Transitioning to a 12-month operation which will satisfy the longstanding need for a village grocery store – providing access to fresh, nutritious food year-round while continuing to build our community and support the local economy here in Colborne.
We have built the Fidelity Group of Companies on the guiding principle ‘Only the Best’ and we believe that this applies across every facet of who we are and what we do. By ensuring this store remains open and accessible, we are reaffirming our dedication to support local families, creating sustainable opportunities, and contributing to the long-term growth of the place we call home. This is just one more way we are investing in our roots and helping our community to thrive for generations to come.
