Books, Manuscripts
At this stage in Canada's development, family farms are facing unprecedented pressures. By outlining the history of one particular farm - from its first years to its recent past - 'To the seventh generation' offers Canadians (and others) a firsthand portrait of how faming has evolved in Canada. It chronicles the changes in Canadian agriculture from the perspective of the families who have worked Ardyne Farm for almost two centuries, having emigrated from Kintyre in the early 19th century. Its illustrations record the changes in building styles as rural communities developed.
