It was a beautiful New Years Day morning on the farm marsh. The wildlife seemed to think so too! Take a look at the picture below to see if you can identify a seldom seen resident. Hint, it’s not the ducks! Happy New Year from the Cole Harbour Rural Heritage Society and Farm Museum!

Dog Park and Trails?

Is everyone aware that we have 7 areas from the Maritimes registered to participate in the 2021 City Nature Challenge? To help coordinate our efforts a new iNat...uralist 'umbrella' project has been created. It is on this project page that journal articles will be posted - these news items will cover a wide variety of topics. To receive automatic notification if/when news items are posted all you have to do is go to iNaturalist and join the 2021 project. https://inaturalist.ca//city-nature-challenge-2021-the-mar See more

Well folks, it's been quite the year! One thing's for sure - that through the ups and downs, trails gave us a place to go - either to get moving, to slow down, ...to get space or to come together. The number of people out on trails has really soared this year - and that's great! But it also means that trails need even more maintenance to keep up with the traffic. It means more work for trail volunteers who already do so much to make trails available and safe for us all! Trails and trail volunteers have given us SO much this year. It's the perfect time to give back! Please consider donating to trails this holiday season either in your name, or as a gift for another trail enthusiast in your life! To donate, visit our website at www.nstrails.com/donate-now. You can choose to donate to NS Trails or to one of our members!

Yes, that is our Jerry Lonecloud.

Merry Christmas Happy Holidays

You've likely seen transit priority and new bike lanes in the municipality. These projects are part of the Integrated Mobility Plan (or IMP). Learn more about how the municipality is focusing on Moving People rather than vehicles.

The Farm online shop will be shutting down over the holidays from December 18th - January 11th. So be sure to visit our online gift & grocery shop before the ho...liday break. We recently added many of our most loved gift shop items, including lavender products, local books, blacksmith ornaments, schleich toys, and more!
