Description of the attraction
The Canadian Museum of Agriculture and Food is an entertaining museum in the capital of Canada, Ottawa. The museum is located at 901 Prince of Wales Street, on the grounds of the Central Experimental Farm.
The Canadian Museum of Agriculture and Food is the perfect place for an exciting family weekend and a great opportunity to get acquainted with the peculiarities of life on the farm and its inhabitants (goats, cows, horses, alpacas, pigs, chickens, etc.), the history of agricultural development in Canada, with scientific and technological progress in this industry, as well as with modern problems and solutions. You will learn a lot of new and interesting things by visiting the exhibition "What do we eat?" However, you will get a lot of pleasure just walking along the picturesque territory of the museum.
Every year in May, the Canadian Museum of Agriculture and Food hosts the Sheep Shearing Festival and the Ice Cream Festival in August. The management pays special attention to the development of a variety of general education programs for both preschool and school children and students. The most popular service here is the “celebration of a children's birthday” (there are two formats of the event to choose from - “Pizza Party!” And “A MOOving Experience”). During the summer period, the “Summer Camp” for children from 4 to 14 years old works on the territory of the museum.
In addition to the Canadian Museum of Agriculture and Food, the Central Experimental Farm also houses the Dominion Observatory, the Dominion Arboretum, Ornamental Gardens and the James Fletcher Wildlife Garden.
