In the heart of the city of Ottawa, lies a 400 acre farm. This facility is operated and maintained by Agriculture and Agri-Foods Canada and is where a considerable amount of important research on food crops is carried out. It is a wonderfully special and much loved place, first developed in the late 19th century. It has recently been designated a heritage site. Also on the farm is the Dominion Arboretum, the Fletcher Wildlife Garden, and the Agricultural Museum.
There are 7 sub-galleries on this site, for example, "Spring on the Farm", "Greenhouses on the Farm", etc. Click on each one to open up the gallery and see more photos. Click on the "Dominion Arboretum in Ottawa" gallery to open up yet more sub-galleries with photos of the Arboretum. And remember, click on the thumbnails to see the picture at full size.
