- Juniper (2001 pop.: 450) is a hamlet in Carleton County, New Brunswick, Canada. Juniper is located in Aberdeen Parish. It is situated on Route 107, which runs from Route 105 at Bristol, northeast to Juniper, and then bends southeast towards Napadogan and . Geographic coordinates: 46° 33' North, 67° 13' West; elevation 899 ft. Juniper is named for the low growing juniper shrub which allegedly grows in the boggy spruce forest near . The local economy is largely forestry-based, which employees roughly half of the population. In November 2006, the village started experiencing trouble keeping its paper mills open due to a decrease in the price of paper. The economy also benefits from some hunting and fishing-related tourism, as the village is on the South Branch of the Southwest Miramichi River, renowned for its salmon and trout fishing. The nearby Juniper Barrens String Bog, the largest bog in the area, covers 12 square kilometres, and is home to the White Fringed Orchid (Platanthera blepharglottis), an uncommon type of Butterfly Orchid, and the sedge (grass) Carex eburnea. The peat is two to three metres deep. The bog is one of several unique sites in Maine and the Maritime Provinces of Canada, featured on the Irving Forest Discovery Network. Juniper's post office dates from 1918. (en)
