I passed by this large tractor on the grounds.
The barnyard of the Dairy Barn is here.
A view towards the Learning Centre.
These antique plows caught my eye.
Inside, the current exhibit is on aquaculture- fisheries being the primary example. A number of large scale photographs around the First Nations fishery industry of the Pacific Northwest were here.
This bell stood in the original horse and cattle barn, which was destroyed in a fire. It now resides here.
The aquaculture exhibit I skimmed through- though I liked the visual of this, with streamers from the high ceiling resembling seaweed.
Whenever I visited the agricultural college as a kid, with my parents, the many tractors were the most exciting thing to see. Which I am reminded of even today.
ReplyDeleteTractors fascinate kids.

Looks like it.
DeleteI sure do see a lot of tractors around here. :)
ReplyDeleteRare in the city, but I grew up with them.
DeleteA great looking tractor.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
That it is.
DeleteThe John Deere four wheel drive loader tractor is a real workhorse capable of moving great weights from place to place. Those antique plows are best of historic displays, and are no longer for turning over soil.
ReplyDeleteThat is true.
DeleteThat looks like an impressive farm to me. Farming is big here in New Zealand.
ReplyDeleteIt is here too.
