The Rural Voice, 1992-06, Page 37Elementary and high school
groups study any number of topics.
They might study the uses and
characteristics of Ontario farm
animals, the advances made by the
food industry, rural social history, the
changing means of transportation
between 1830-1930 and how those
changes affected rural life, or they
might simply study agriculture, and
how it shaped our province.
There are seasonal programs for
the school groups as well as for the
general public. There are also quilt
and craft festivals, heavy horse
plowing matches, blacksmith
competitions and farmer's markets.
In 1891, the 100th anniversary of
the first agricultural fair in Ontario
was celebrated. Visitors to the
Ontario Agricultural Museum learn
what all consumers need to know,
what farmers sometimes need to be
reminded; in the agricultural industry,
there is still much to celebrate.
The Ontario Agricultural Museum
is open May — September. For more
