Canadian Museum of Agriculture

National Capital Commission Scenic Driveway, Ottawa, ON K1Y, Canada

About the company:

The Canadian Museum of Agriculture is located in the center of Ottawa, on the territory of the Central Experimental Farm. The museum offers its guests a personal experience of how and what works in modern agriculture. Here, on a real farm and on interactive exhibitions, you can participate in the process of growing and harvesting. And if you are not very fascinated by combine harvesters and tractors, then you can relax in nature, because the Agricultural Museum is also called the “Green Capital”.

The expositions of the museum are open only in the summer - from March to October. There are cattle pens on the farm, and every May there is a traditional sheep shearing festival. The museum also houses a small apiary, and one of the tours details the role of bees in the prosperity of crops such as blueberries and apples.

One of the museum’s offices is right in the field. There is an exhibition of agricultural machinery. Some exhibits here are about a hundred years old, but they are fully operational.
