Celebrating Ontario's rich dairy & agricultural history, through contemporary, engaging exhibits and education programs
Celebrating Ontario's rich dairy & agricultural history, through contemporary, engaging exhibits and education programs
From what started 30+ years ago as a passion project by a dairy farming couple from Holland (who'd personally collected over 16,000 artifacts!), our museum has evolved into a multi-faceted education centre, featuring brand new classroom/meeting facilities, acres of event fields and trails, camping/cabin accommodations and a robust education program for groups of all ages and abilities.
