SUN. JULY 23
Ox Power
Before the arrival of machines,
work that was too hard for man
was carried out by trained
animals. For hundreds of years, the
Ox has helped to do everything
from preparing the land, to moving
heavy loads. This weekend you will
have the opportunity to see the
oxen at Ross Farm at work, chat
with the teamster, and learn what
made Oxen so important to
settlers in rural Nova Scotia.
