Description
LaHave is a small scenic village located at the mouth of the LaHave River in Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia. Since the late 19th century, LaHave has been connected to East LaHave, located on the opposite side of the LaHave river, via a cable ferry. Immediately after exiting the ferry and turning left in LaHave, the renowned LaHave Bakery comes into view. Offering homemade breads, and baked goods, locally made food products and coffees, as well as lunches, the Bakery is a favorite stop for visitors to this area. The building which houses the LaHave Bakery, Homegrown Skateboards and the Craft Co-Op, was originally the home of the LaHave Outfitting Company, a ship's chandlery and fish processing plant. It was built in 1896 and extensively renovated in the 1980's when the Bakery made its home here. The inside of the Bakery intentionally retains a historic and charming atmostphere. This design of this sign on the outside of the building hints at the Celtic influence in this region.
