Ross Farm Museum

Geese on the Pond...
Rose Cottage where today they were baking biscuits and cookies and making butter. Wild Thing was afraid of the steep stairs and Nature Girl wants to move in!
Wild Thing of course spent loads of time with the chickens.
The pigs are our hands down favourite animals there though. They play like dogs, they like getting petted and tickled behind the eyes and scratched on the back. They answer you when you talk to them. Look at that face.

We had such a good time we got a year pass. Every weekend through the winter they fun events, and snowshoe and x country ski trails and no tourists clogging up the joint! They have special programs where kids get to go and in period dress learn everything about farming in the mid 1800's. Next year we'll sign Nature Girl up, she is so excited!

I've been doing some work for one of the city's historical house museums making reproductions of children's clothes for their programs. It's really neat finding research on what kids wore in the 1800's. The underclothes are especially interesting. I'm sure you'll enjoy the period info.

Nicole I must have copied your email down wrong because I've tried it several times (and been fiddling with the address each time) and they keep getting returned.

Can you email me? dirtwitch@eastlink.ca.

We'd love to see the research you've done. This year and next we plan on focussing on pioneer experiences (we have so many different ones to consider here in Nova Scotia - the Mi'kmaq, the French and English, the Acadiens, The Planters, The Freed Slaves and blacks that escaped across to Canada, as well as later immigrant waves - German and Irish, and Scottish of course.
