Just moved to Almonte in a new house. We were out walking on the week-end and someone who was driving through was all angry about this subdivision and stopped us on our walk, asked us if we bought one of these new homes. We thought they were interested in talking about it, instead they told us that we’re ruining Almonte, turning it into Ottawa and that if we wanted a brand new home, we should have looked elsewhere.

He then drove away..

I later saw in one of the Facebook groups that others were complaining about this too(people moving to Almonte). Is this going to be a problem for us living here? Is nobody allowed to move to Almonte?

I bought some while visiting and it was so good and want to get more but sadly the bottle didn't have the business name on it.

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!
Examples could include things like Miss Mills, C.P./Cartoon Palace or the Mighty Mississippi (never mind how common they are)...

I'm visiting from out of town and everyone has such lovely daylilies and coneflowers! Where does everyone buy them from? Or would anyone be willing to sell me a small bunch so I can bring it home to my garden? We only have yellow or orange daylilies where I live and I'd love to add some variety. Thanks!

I would want to pick them up on Monday if possible:)

Hi everyone,
I’m moving to Almonte, Ontario, and I’m trying to figure out which Internet provider has the best service and reliability.
I’m looking for:
Fast and consistent speeds
Good reliability (minimal outages)
Fair pricing
Good customer service
If you live in or near Almonte, who do you recommend, and who should I avoid?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I just moved to the area and I am looking for an off leash dog park to take my girl. We have a good sized property just on the outskirts of almonte, but I think she’s really missing the socialization.

Let me know if there are any good spots. My dog has fairly good recall so it does not need to be fenced in.

Thanks!

New to town and wondering if anyone knows anywhere that sells pokemon cards? Of course there’s random gas station finds and maybe even shoppers, but looking to support more niche hobby shops etc. Almonte + surrounding area would be great. Thanks!

Huuuuge fuck you. You ruined my tie rod end. I almost flipped the car swerving into gravel.

I hope you hate yourself for the rest of your life for almost killing me and not stopping to see if I was okay.

GET OFF YOUR FUCKING PHONES ON THE SIDE ROADS.

Hello Almontonians! I’ve (F30) been housesitting in Almonte since January and the family returns mid-July. The town grew on me and I plan on staying, so I’m on the hunt for a room or studio apartment :) I’m studying CompSci at Carleton and work at a restaurant in town, so preferably something on a student budget.

I have a cat and a car. Looking for a 6-month or year long lease.

I’ve been on the lookout for “For rent” signs on my walks around town and I’m part of the Almonte for rent Facebook group, though I’d appreciate any leads!

Staff, medical staff and recent retirees were recognized during the Mississippi River Health Alliance's 2026 Long Service Awards celebration at Almonte General Hospital.

Service milestones ranged from five to 40 years across Almonte General Hospital, Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital, Fairview Manor and Lanark County Paramedic Service.
