Les premières plantations de pommiers sur le versant sud-ouest du Mont Yamaska apparaissent en 1811. Elles sont développées principalement par des loyalistes du Royaume-Uni qui sont venus trouver refuge chez nous lors de la Guerre d'indépendance des États-Unis, dans la grande région des Cantons de l'Est (Eastern Townships). La greffe de la pomme aurait été introduite par Samuel Jackman en 1823, et quelques centaines de variétés de pommes auraient ainsi été greffées dans les décennies suivantes, dont un grand nombre d'entre elles qui ne sont plus cultivées aujourd'hui.

Report By Montreal Horticultural Society and Fruit Growers' Association of the Province of Quebec, 1876, page 67, excerpt: The first seedling orchard of Abbottsford was planted by a man named Joe Frizzle..... The orchard began to bear at least as much as 65 years ago. i.e., in 1812 or earlier. Grafting was commenced about 1828 by the late Samuel Jackman who came here in 1819.
