Ross Farm Museum
Come to Ross Farm Museum to explore 60 acres of rolling farmland and discover what life was like on a Nova Scotia family farm over 100 years ago.
An authentic, living heritage site, much of the farm remains the same as it was in the 1800s. From historic Rose Bank Cottage where the Ross family lived, to daily activities such as wool spinning, candle making, and ox shoeing, the museum gives visitors the chance to experience yesterday’s traditional farming methods, while learning sustainable ways of living for today.
Chat with costumed interpreters, hike the scenic nature trail, take a wagon ride or winter sleigh ride, and meet the animals who live and work on the farm as you connect with Nova Scotia’s rural heritage. Whether you’re milking a cow or enjoying the site’s natural beauty, Ross Farm Museum provides a unique glimpse of life in the 19th-century.
The Wonders of Maple Syrup
Saturday, April 6 n Sunday, April 7
We don’t tap a lot of trees on the farm, but we still have fun with maple syrup! This weekend, join us to learn about the process of tapping trees, collecting the sap and boiling it down to make delicious maple syrup. Satisfy your tastebuds with the opportunity to sample maple syrup and pancakes in Rosebank Cottage.
